Kanu Hawaii Eat Local Challenge (Extra Credit)


I Love Kanu! This is an awesome site for connecting to and staying active in the community moving toward sustainability!

My Company, Down to Earth ALL VEGETARIAN Organic & Natural, is affiliated with Kanu and a part of the eat local challenge. if you are participating, head our way for some localy grown favorites.

As I have mentioned in previous posts, our food want us to eat it local. When it is local we can trust that it is at its nutrient peak and that is will provide us with its healthful potential. There is also less of a drain on the environment and our natural resources because the pollution and fuel it takes to transport goods over long distances is cut out of the picture.

I am a little spoiled in this department because my boyfriend's parents own and operate a successful organic farm in Opihikau. You may have seen them at the farmers markets selling the most delicious lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, green beans, greens and, oh yeah, egg-free doughnuts you have ever seen! Needles to say it will not be difficult for us to participate in the eat local challenge this week and every week to fallow :)
