Gettin' fed with Shelley M.

Bolder Action (BA):
Shop at the local Menlo Park Farmer's market and subscribe to a local CSA (community supported agriculture)

What led you to do this action?
I realized that not only are fresh, organic fruits and veggies healthier for me, but sustainable agriculture is also healthier for our environment. Furthermore, I get a sense of satisfaction when I support my local farmers, and I feel more connected to the local men and women who labor for our enjoyment of food . It's also empowering to know where my food comes from and that it was grown without harmful pesticides or other chemicals. There is no comparison to the taste of extremely fresh and pure fruits and veggies either!

Are you still doing this action?
Yes, I visit the former's market nearly every Sun morning and just renewed my CSA subscription for this year!
