The Eat Local Challenge Dining Out Guide
Apr 6, 2015
We are almost 1 week into the Eat Local Challenge. We hope everyone is having a good time navigating the waters of local eating. We have an abundance of local eats here in the Lowcountry – CSAs, farmers markets, the local section of your grocery store, and a variety of local restaurants. Several of our local restaurants are joining the Eat Local Challenge and serving up local specials, plates and discounts. Not in the mood for cooking? Treat yourself to a meal out and earn points on your Challenge scorecard. Check out our Eat Local Challenge Dining Guide below:
