I also agree that buying local is important if we want to do something good for the environment and that is often overlooked. <br /><br />I think making people aware of where their food comes from goes a long way. If we question where our food comes from, we are more likely to buy local produce and go to local markets. It's a long journey for some, but it's doable. A neighbor of mine has lost 80 pounds over the last year and went from eating nothing but processed foods to biking to all the different Farmers' Markets in the area. She now eats mostly fresh fruits and vegetables. It's a true transformation. She didn't do it over night, but it was a process.Andrea@WellnessNoteshttp://www.andreaswellnessnotes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339763320840481095.post-69734387962025589222010-05-23T08:01:05.060+09:002010-05-23T08:01:05.060+09:00I agree with a lot of what you say about organics....I agree with a lot of what you say about organics. I'm a huge fan of advocating local produce. Especially for instance, feeding kids local apples rather than "organic" chicken nuggets = CRAP. However, I still do promote eating organic to people as much as possible because it is so much better for the environment. But, local always takes precedence over organic in my diet because it too is better for the environment, and taste good as well.
