Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food.

Have you ever wondered where and how eat everyday comes from? Is eating organic food really makes a difference?

  

 What we put in our bodies is crucial to our health and well being. Most of the time when we go to buy produce at the nearby grocery store, we don't really know where and how those fruits and vegetables were grown. What kind chemicals are used to grow the produce, and are they harmful to our bodies? I'll talk more about those questions later on. For now, let's talk about how you can learn more about where you food comes from.

 The best way to learn about your food and where it comes from is through a local food producer. Get to know your local farmer, and get to know your food. Most places hold weekly farmers markets where you can purchase fresh locally grown produce. It will give you an opportunity to ask a farmer any questions about their food. As I’ve mentioned earlier, knowing what we put in our bodies is important to our health and our well being. Even though it's a fruit or a vegetable, doesn't mean it's good for us.
