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)
  2. Farmers' Markets-- A national listing of farmers' markets.
  3. Local Harvest -- This Web site will help you find farmers' markets, family farms, and other sources of sustainably grown food in your area where you can buy produce, grass-fed meats, and many other goodies.

How The Meat Gets to Your Table (video)

This video shows where the meat products that you consume come from.
Nobody can tell you what to eat, but you should not hide from the reality of how the meat gets to your plate and into your stomach.
The meat and dairy industries are cruel and inhumane to the animals they exploit for the profits they extract from their human customers who usually have no idea about
how what they are eating was produced.
So watch this video to the end and then order a Big Mac.
If we want meat then it has to be produced in a lawful manner.
Take a special note that the milk produced as shown here is the kind that goes to the big dairy companies and is found pasteurized and homogenized in the corporate super markets. Raw milk, cheese, and butter, along with free range eggs come from cows and chickens raised on open natural pasture , the natural food and life style of these creatures.
Before you buy raw milk or eggs take the time to visit the farm and meet the farmer and let him introduce you to the cows and chickens. Inspect their living conditions.
If there is any sign of abuse walk away.
