In today's world, we can eat out-of-season fruit and vegetables on any given day of the year. But there is a price to be paid for such luxuries. On average, the food we eat today travels 1,500 miles from farm to fork, having a negative impact on the environment. But many home gardeners are changing that. Filmed in Los Angeles, California, this episode reveals how to "keep it close to home" with purchases and pursuits, so we can achieve a more organic and fresh lifestyle without adversely affecting the environment.
