Introduction

I am so glad you have chosen this book. If you are concerned about spiraling food prices and want to improve your health then you are in the right place.

Factory food is easy. If you have enough money you just go to the store and buy itmaybe already cooked, or at least neatly packaged. Finding and obtaining the fresh and healthy local foods can be a lot harder. Impossible in some places, but never easy. Local food can also be expensive, which shuts out the poor and struggling middle class from the health and social benefits of eating local.

This book will help you find affordable food where you live, and discuss ways of making real organic food more accessible. I will show you the best way to tackle the supermarket. I will also cover CSAs, farmers markets, community gardens, home food gardens and orchards, fisheries, casual trade, gleaning, and foraging. There will also be chapters on eating out and local artisanal local manufacture of food products.

And once you get the food home I will show you how to keep from wasting it and how to prepare it so you can heat and eat when the pressure is on. That is how you ditch the take out that is hurting your pocketbook and your health.
