Coal, Garlic and Chinagate?

Why buy months old garlic from thousands of kilometres away when you can buy local, fresh garlic and support your own local economy as well as tread lighter on the environment?  Obama and Romney seem to have a lot to say about these issues.  It is no different in our own valleys.
