Where the Food Is

As living beings we have the responsibility to feed our bodies good nutritious food in order to sustain the life we have been given. Failure to properly feed the body leads to its degeneration into disabilities, sickness, suffering and death. If you do not feed your body it will depart from you, sooner, rather than later. Therefore, each one of us must know where to find the food we need in order to sustain our living bodies in a state of good vibrant health. Here is a list of websites that will help you to locate where the food is near to where you live so that you can get it for yourself and your family.


Here's also a listing of great resources to obtain organically-grown, wholesome food:
  1. Alternative Farming Systems Information Center, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
