It's not economical for things like wheat, but many other foods could demand a higher cost while reducing delivery times and product loss. Things like greens being extremely fresh and being within possibly a few minutes of the local vendors.

Local grocery stores being locked into distribution networks and supply chains completely negates any advantage of food being produced locally. The only way my produce could make it into my 1 mi away store is to be trucked to their distribution warehouse 85 mi away.

Wheat isn't a thing we really need to worry about growing in the winter. It's fresh vegetables that will really make a difference.
