Foodie Q&A: Jake McDaniel & Garrett Herring of Local’s Underground

Everything comes from your neighbors. We source almost all ingredients from Rockingham County. Then, food doesn’t have to be shipped around from warehouse to warehouse, there’s less stress on 81, less vehicle emissions. It’s fresher. The produce is not stressed out because it doesn’t have to be refrigerated and shipped and moved and boxed and unboxed and wrapped. You can taste the difference.
