Today as I was on Twitter I came across a contest that someone posted! I read all the terms and thought why not! So many of us are trying to be sustainable and change our ways! The more we can change, the better off our planet will be. I try very hard in my daily life to buy fresh organic produce (if im not already growing it) and meat from local farmers that are grass fed and organic. I try to find places within 100 miles of me. I shop many differnt Farmers Markets and am always searching for Farms (meat,produce & orchards). I feel this helps my local econmy,lowers my carbon footprint drasticly and creates better food for my family.
Heres the contest link /http://blog.brighterplanet.com/sustainable-cooking/tips-to-choose-from/
I think I will be entering the part of the contest On Food Sources! Heres the following options in that catagory!
Get in touch with your hunter/gatherer roots
Grow your own food
Support grocers with sustainable practices
Shop at the farmers’ market and join a CSA
Support restaurants with sustainable practices
I cant decide between Growing your own food or Shop at Farmers Markets. What do you think? I would be intrested in your feedback! I thought if I did Growing your own food I could Incorporate my Recycling Garden Ideas and how I create my food and how it lowers my Carbon footprint.
I hope that some of you enter the contest!

I certainly wish you luck...I have a Kindle 2 and I absolutely love it...I've been so busy reading since I got it that I haven't stopped to think of all the fantastic opportunities it affords me such as downloading cookbooks...so thank you for reminding me...I hope to keep up with your progress in this contest...I like this idea you have, "I thought if I did Growing your own food I could Incorporate my Recycling Garden Ideas and how I create my food and how it lowers my Carbon footprint." This country and the world need to be encouraged to pursue this method of food gathering and recycling...we've gotten so far away from our self-sustaining and frugal roots...we need a vanguard to show us the way and help us get back on track. I believe you'll be good one.....yeehaa!!!
ReplyDeleteJenn, in New Zealand where I live, all meat is grass fed :-) Good luck with the contest.
