Eating highly nutritious, organic food is one of the most important things you can do for you health. Not only are you reducing the amount of toxins in your body, but you are also supplying it with better quality protein, and more vitamins and minerals.
Growing food in your backyard also is a vital act in helping the environment. Reducing pollution and oil consumption used to transport produce, as well as refusing to support farms who destroy soil with rampant chemical use are essential to the health of the planet. Although not widely recognized as activism, home and community gardens are a empowering way to stand up for your health and your environment.
Plus, it tastes better!
