every food that we eat should come from Organic Farming. i really get scared about those toxins coming from chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides. I only eat foods which are certified that they are organically grown

Hey Ann…you should check out this post: http://ryanishungry.com/2008/03/13/diy-rooftop-garden-in-chicago/
There’s quite a powerful group doing rooftop gardening in that city. A good model for any urban area.

There is a local group in Oakland that would know all the resources/people is http://www.baylocalize.org/. They are good people and hoping for more people to join up.

yeah that’s exactly what’s been happening with us too. we have certain foods that are growing in the garden and have been discovering as many ways as possible to cook with them. how many ways can you make swiss chard? not too many, but man it does taste good!

for us, it just took seeing others around us actually growing and cooking their own food. It’s tough to break a lifetime of habit eating packaged food and having no real cooking skills. we got to do this together.

How to make food cheaper? Make time to cook properly and regularly. Learn how to look at what you have in the house and make it into something tasty – being ‘food blind’ is hugely expensive and very unhealthy.

I get a veg box from a local farm – 95% of it has been grown in Sussex. I love it because I no longer am paralysed by ‘choice’. I find if I can eat food from any country in the world at any time of the year then I have absolutely no idea what to make. When my veg box arrives I have two weeks worth of local, seasonal produce that I have to do something with. It makes me really inventive and creative with what I cook. Since I have been eating this way, my cooking skills have progressed exponetially – who knew I could make turnip taste nice!

Going to shut up before I start sounding even more evangelical.
