We need to support our farmers, the ones in our backyard and in turn take care of ourselves.

I hope you get a chance to see it.

Back then it was SO hard to get access to organic food, but I've always gone out of my way to purchase it (voting with my dollars!). I'm so glad to see more and more people demanding it. I think the tide is turning and people are getting smarter about what they're eating. It warms my heart to see the good food you serve your family. By the way, I came to your blog this evening from Sue's link -- how cool to see you there :-)<br /><br />Also, I just want to say that I love the comment your mom left (and your reply). xoxoJaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308167865201165802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8310152874137626164.post-52039311933165100152012-02-09T20:28:32.390-05:002012-02-09T20:28:32.390-05:00Thank you, JoEllen!

Here it's not hard to buy local since so much of the food comes from here but even at the farmers' markets, which used to be a good deal, the prices are much higher. To pay 2 bucks for an apple seems like a lot. In terms of the hormones, what a mess. I've heard that girls are entering puberty too early as a result of these hormones they're ingesting in food. It's a disgrace. Good for you being on the health bandwagon.Nancy Frederick Sussanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16319437827096600883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8310152874137626164.post-8719764517700320592012-02-09T12:30:21.889-05:002012-02-09T12:30:21.889-05:00Thanks, Mom!

Food has changed drastically. Farmers are using hormones, things are genetically modified, and pesticides are stronger and stronger....our population is growing and farmers, in order to keep up with demand and hold prices down, do these things to food to sell 'food.' However, the food that is available to us is unsafe, for the most part. Being a responsible consumer is very difficult, expensive, and confusing. We all need to become more educated to become responsible consumers. Don't believe all you hear on any level, good OR bad. Read, learn, become educated. In the long run, it is our lives and our health that is at stake and I'd much rather spend a little more money for healthier food than pay for it later with disease and medical bills. We can't avoid everything. Our water is filled with chemicals; we get it 'in' us just bathing; it's scary, I know. Thank you for helping YOUR daughters to learn about the world around them and teach them to make informed choices.....<br />EXCELLENT Rosinda.....<br /><br />and to all those who say they can't afford it. Truly, you can't afford NOT to. <br /><br />xoxo<br />Joannthe REAL girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14274364426380668407noreply@blogger.com
