To echo Nell above, I don't need a dehydrator...I'm in the market for a juicer!

Thanks for the easy to read explanation! At Mission: Clean Kids we know that looking at the whole picture is most important. Others don’t understand why it’s not just about “organic”.

We just joined a CSA here, Fortunatly for us we also have about four Farmers Markets so we can buy local foods as much as possible. The information that you gave in this post, everybody needs to be aware of. Thanks. Very informative.

So many people don't think about how far their food has traveled to make it to their table. I love supporting local CSA's, Farmer's Markets, and growing my own food. It just tastes so much better. :) Great Post. So many people don’t think about how far their food has traveled to make it to their table.

While I'm not new to eating better, I am growing more and more diligent in keeping it going every day instead of "falling" off the "wagon" and eating junk for weeks before getting back on. Not only is that terrible for MY body but is terrible for my children. I've really turned a corner in the past few weeks and feel incredibly devoted to eating healthy. Now I just need a dehydrator!

It's been challenging, but fun, to learn to cook and preserve all of this food. If he one day finds a new job, i'll continue to get food shares, even though it's a lot of money up front. That big box of soooo-good-for-you food makes me happy. :) My husband works for a CSA, and one of the benefits was a free weekly food share.
