If you haven’t seen the documentary The Future of Food, then please consider watching it on Netflix or on www.thefutureoffood.com, which is free. It is alarming how big corporations are taking control over our food source. I know the struggle of affording good, quality, naturally or organically and locally grown food, but it is imperative that we do for our health, the health of our children and the health of our nation.

The Future of Food will give you a whole new way of thinking about Genetically Modified food.

Please consider supporting a local farmer this year, either through farmers markets, buying a CSA membership or you can even “purchase” a workershare from your farmer. A workershare is when you work so many hours, usually set by your farmer, in exchange for a CSA box. This is a wonderful opportunity to see where your food comes from, learn about gardening, growing your own vegetables, not to mention the joy of being a part of a local farm and eating what your own hands have helped produce.
