For example, if you have a local farmers' market where neighboring farms and gardens sell their produce in town and it is bought by members of the community, this is a local food system. In contrast, global food systems describe a much larger scale.



Hope this helps

Answer: A local food system is, for example, a local farmers' market where product from adjacent farms and gardens is sold in town and purchased by members of the community. Global food systems, on the other hand, refer to a much bigger scale.
