Knowing where your food comes from is super important. It adds a sense of trust that local grocery stores may not offer. Absolutely! Knowing that there is a safe source of healthy foods from local farmer makes me want to eat healthier. It also reminds me that there are farms that are struggling during this pandemic and it breaks my heart. Buy Local!!

The Pandemic makes sourcing food a bit weird, but I've been using Full Circle Organics boxes to source at least some local produce, and then splitting that box with my parents! I also brought home eggplants and squash from the Community Garden last week, that are going into tonight's curry. 

Bell peppers! I tend to use these every week.

I have a better attitude when I bike to work (taking less than 5 minutes more of my time) than when I take my car to work and have to sit in traffic. Better for your body and better for the environment!

When you don't have access to nutritious food, you can't grow or function at optimal levels - you may survive, but you won't thrive. When everyone in our community can afford and easily obtain fresh, local, organic, seasonal, sustainable food, we all prosper.
