We have a new thing (after this ridiculous detox we are currently on). We are buying produce and meat and as many things are we can from the people who grew it (or raised and butchered it) or is at most 1 step removed. So if not the person who grew it then someone who knows the person who grew it. It's a battle but we are slowly getting there. Out where I grew up there are still stalls on the side of the road with local produce. We make a point to go out at least once a month- sometimes every 2-3 weeks depending on how we've been eating. On that trip we spend about $60 (and thats the most we've ever spent) and the food lasts for at least 3 weeks, sometimes 4. Firstly because we also grow food to eat but also because it is so fresh that it does not go off in the fridge like the crap from supermarkets. Anyway. Here is the spoils from one such trip. All homegrown, all bought from the people who grew it.
