July 2020 – The Term “Food Security” Is Multi-Faceted
Without delving into conspiracy theories or anything heavy like that,
I just wanted to bring to the top of your awareness
the awesome power each and everyone of us has
as we “vote” with our dollars and our feet!
“Feet?” You say.
Yes, feet.
Every time you choose to make the effort
to go to your Local Farmers’ Market
or buy directly from a farmer right at their farm,
you are voting with your feet.
The “Food Security”
that I am talking about is the building of a relationship
with the people that put their heart and soul
into the growing of QUALITY ORGANIC FOOD,
which is full of real nutrition so your body can thrive!
Do you know what “Thrive” means??
Well I can tell you what it doesn’t mean.
It doesn’t mean that there just aren’t any current diagnosis’.
It doesn’t mean that you just don’t feel sick.
THRIVE, means you are filled with vital energy!
It means you are able to use your body
to bend, stretch, lift, pack, walk, run, work, dance
and have Fun…..including SEX if you like!
I digress.
Seriously, if or when the you-know-what hits the fan,
it will become extremely obvious
that quality nutrition is going to be of premier importance
for you and your family.
Having a good relationship with an organic farmer
will also become extremely valuable.
Just ask anyone who has lived through war, famine or flood!
We take so much for granted.
It has been brought to my attention on several occasions
that the people in Europe value their farmers,
because they know how fragile the food distribution system can be.
Bottom line, grow your own food if possible.
If that won’t work in your situation,
I highly encourage you to buy your food from
the Organic Farmers at your local Farmers’ Market.
Invest in yourself and put your money where it counts….
with the truly local sources of organic food.
Real food actually has a season, so….
Stock up.
You will be glad you did!
Suede Hills have been organic vendors
at the Kamloops Farmers Market for 15 years.
We are one of the few vendors who have a product that is
organic AND is a naturally dried raw food, therefore
our products keep their vital nutrients for a very long time.
Stay Awesome!!
