Abstract

The current "normal" channels for obtaining food in the Haliburton Highlands Bioregion and most other different bioregions in North America are not in keeping with ideas of bioregionalism in that they do not consider the unique character and needs of place but attempt to homogenize our eating habits and, therefore, does not contribute to a culture of biodiversity by monoculture.
