Good Reasons to Support Local Farmers When a fellow panelist recently characterized the growing interest in local foods as hedonistic elitism, I was a bit taken aback. I'd rejected this charge when I heard it before. But maybe there was something to it. Perhaps, if one's view of local food is limited to what's offered at Chez Panisse restaurant in Berkeley, Calif., or Blue Hill at Stone Barns in Pocantico Hills, N.Y., and to the well-heeled patrons who can spend the $150 dinner for two may cost (without cocktails or wine).
