The Homegrown Food Challenge is a pledge to eat only home grown or locally sourced food for the month of October.

Year round, we provide information surrounding food consumption, including gardening tips, recipes, local resources and general information.

For the bountiful harvest time, we encourage others to pledge to take the home grown or local challenge, be it for 1 day, 1 week or the whole month of October.

For the month of October 2010, Antler co-founder Luke Garro took the pledge to consume only foods harvested from his own Sweet Local farm in Western Massachusetts. Taking the challenge is about the personal experience, sharing learnings and promoting sustainable food consumption.
