The first to suffer, the last to recover – restaurants are leading economic indicators for both the worst of our current fiscal crisis, and, many hope, the way out of it.

The problem has always been meat "Grown" in large factories and too MUCH meat consumptions by Americans.
If we all had to be responsible for our OWN food, like our great-grandparents were, more people would live in the country and things would even out.

One mother shared with us that her children were being served "chicken rings" think onion ring-shaped processed chicken bites. Where exactly is that on the food pyramid?! Just keep asking for change - together we will force it!

Georgia Organics "Farming full time is a lot of physical labor, and I enjoy social media
for the short breaks I can take. I don’t watch television and I spend
so much of my life either outside or in the kitchen. I rarely see
people, speak mostly to animals, and social media gives me a little
human contact."

Georgia Organics http://ow.ly/P1te BizWeek: Local food plays much more critical role in economic dev than previously thought. SNAP

Denise

really, you just have to wonder about some of these "experts". anyone with boots on the ground, buying or selling home-grown food, knows this is economically *critical* to a local community. Georgia's legislators and department secretaries need to hear it from us, now more than ever. Loosen the regs and let us grow!

Georgia Organics "If you think local foods are more expensive than their conventional counterparts, think again." - Study

AMES, Iowa -- If you think local foods are more expensive than their conventional counterparts, think again. Research conducted last summer by the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture shows few differences ...

The question is not why is local organic so expensive, it's why is conventional so cheap. hmmm

Is it really that cheap when it is impossible to pay the sickness cost of consuming ‘cheap’ food? It is not so cheap on a per-pound, per-week, or per-lifetime cost.
Organic is far cheaper than 'junk' food because a healthful diet is less expensive shot term and long term than an unhealthful junk food diet. Cheers
