Put something local in your meal.

Adapting your favorite recipes to use local ingredients isn't hard.  Last night, I made tortellini soup.  The recipe called for canned tomatoes.  How could I use canned tomatoes, when we had hundreds of pounds of fresh? So I chopped up some Roma's and threw them in with the stock.  Instead of spinach imported from who knows where, I had some picked fresh from the farm, then frozen in my freezer.  It was delicious!
