I suspect how feasible 100% local is, depends on the time of year. And how desirable 100% local is, depends on how varied a diet you like.

During summer/fall, the local farmers market has most things I want. Veggies, dairy, cheese, bread, meat, poultry, shellfish, some herbs. Local fish is available too. Within 1 mile of my house.

However, during winter/spring, the local stuff dries up - not surprising, given our latitude/climate.

And even in summer/fall, the local fruit selection is very limited. Want a pineapple, or an avocado? Not going to find it local, here in Oregon. And of course there are more ethnic or exotic foods that aren't local - e.g. my daughter's fave, tofu.

In the end, I support buying locally, but "all things in moderation" still applies. Doing things 100% just to make a statement is, well, just to make a statement.
