A Great Resource For Finding Local and Farm Fresh Food

Over the past few years I have been more and more involved with farmer's markets and fresh produce. Buying local isn't just about supporting local farmer's, it's also about freshness and quality. Please note that not all produce has to be organic to be good. Get to know the dirty dozen list of fruits and vegetables and what you should always buy organic. Buying organic from Chile or New Zealand or some other foreign place isn't ideal just because it is organic. Think about the time it takes to get the produce here and how it's treated (gassing).  By the time it actually hits the store shelves it has lost a good amount of freshness.

I am committed to educating myself and others about living the healthiest lifestyle possible, spread the word!  Here is a link to Fresh Nation, a fantastic resource for finding fresh, local food.www.freshnation.com
