Local Food and Local Farms

Amer­i­can Farm­land is now send­ing their free bumper sticker ‘No Farms No Food’ to Canada. Amer­i­can Farm­land is an asso­ci­a­tion that sup­ports and pro­tects farm and ranch land and works to improve the eco­nomic via­bil­ity of agri­cul­ture. This is such an impor­tant cause for the United States, Canada and, well, every­where! Surf­ing through this site you’ll find great reminders why it is so impor­tant to sup­port our local food growers.

This hits home for me right now because, though I know it’s small pota­toes (no pun intended), my fam­ily grew our first veg­etable and fruit gar­den this year. Just last night we har­vested our apples (the tree was mature in the yard when we started our gar­den :-) ) and spent two hours mak­ing (very yummy) apple­sauce. Every body was tired and ready to order Domi­nos after about half an hour which was a great head­way into a very impor­tant dis­cus­sion about how hard farm­ers and food proces­sors work to ensure that we have afford­able and healthy food on our tables. All this com­bines to remind me to attend my local farm­ers mar­ket this weekend.

    Con­grats on your home­grown apple­sauce! I’ve been an urban gar­dener all of my life and really enjoy can­ning and pre­serv­ing our home­grown fruits and veg­eta­bles. There’s absolutely noth­ing like open­ing a jar of some­thing home­made on a dark, cold winter’s day and reliv­ing an all-too-short sum­mer for a moment!

    In the drop down box where you select a state you can select your province. Let me know if that works!
