Real food makes real people

Today I ate figs from my own tree and in doing so, I felt more connected to nature than I have for a long time.

Where I live, I can walk out into nature whenever I want. It is a blessing I’ve received over and over again throughout my life. Always available, always appreciated.

But today, I learned that food grown close to home tastes better, feels better and I'm sure makes my body better. Sounds familiar, wonder why it took me so long to experience that? Farmer's Markets here I come.

Does anyone think it's a coincidence that what tastes better and makes you feel better is also better for the planet?
