At last-new food laws that are good for us

Looks like we may be seeing more fresh, local chicken in CT!!! According to this article at HartfordBusiness.com:

The “farms, foods and jobs” law Gov. M. Jodi Rell signed Tuesday immediately allows certain growers to sell dressed poultry and other poultry products directly to consumers, restaurants and hotels. The law covers Connecticut farms that produce fewer than 5,000 turkeys and 20,000 other poultry a year.

There’s a few more bennies for the local food front. Go check out the whole article. Thanks Jodi, heck of a nice going away present!
