For oh-so-many years I have been compelled to buy local, support small businesses, down size and spend time doing what I felt was important. Sometimes I have been more successful at it than others and sometimes I have lost my way entirely–having to travel full-circle to remember who I was & who I wanted to grow to be.
Well, today I joined a local farmers coop. I have wanted to for years but was totally unaware that we had one in the area. Not only do we have one–we HAVE HAD for almost 10 years! Wondering where MY head has really been….. Anyway…
After work today I stopped in and looked around, comparing prices with our local supermarkets & the sites I have been ordering from. I was surprised at how competitive the prices are and happy with the variety of things they have. ….So I signed on, picked up a load of local, organic goodies and feel great about seizing the opportunity. What have you guys done that made you feel you’ve done something good for yourself and made a difference in your community?
