Please shop locally for organic seasonal produce and support small family farms whenever possible.

I encourage you to buy organic, non-GMO options whenever possible.

I call on you to support local, biodiverse farms and local food producers.

I urge you to eat seasonally and preserve and ferment foods for future use.

I empower you to grow your own vegetables, fruit, and animals for food, fat, and hides.

I implore you to foster relationships with organic farmers in your area and help support their efforts for a more sustainable future.
