Day 7: February 17

Buy Local, Organic Foods when possible

Dzao Vu, nSJ
Eating locally and organically is a privilege. If it is something that you are able to do, here are a few questions to consider.

Next time you're buying food, consider these questions:

1. Is this food organic, and has it been harvested sustainably?

2. How far has this food traveled?

3. Has this food been processed?

4. What sort of package does this food come in?

5. Has this product come from an animal?

6. Notice how your body feels after consuming fresh, organic produce.

7. Does your local produce taste different-palatable and savorable?

8. Is this change something you can work towards everyday?
