Why We Need To Grow Our Own Food
There are so many important reasons why we need to grow our own food it's difficult to know where to begin. Only about 3% of the fresh fruit and vegetables we consume in Nova Scotia are grown by farmers within our province. Most of that is non-organic. The majority of what is available at our supermarkets is imported from the USA. Recent testing by American Regulatory bodies such as the FDA and USDA has shown that the food we are buying from south of the border is heavily contaminated with insecticides and herbicides. The same is true for Mexican, South American and especially Chinese imports. Some fruits and vegetables tested contained more than 60 different pesticides! Not only are these poisons harming us and all future generations they are also partly responsible for global Beehive Colony Collapse. It's no different even if you buy local produce from a local farmer's market. If it's not organic then it's been sprayed with some form of pesticide.
Here are some important reasons to start growing your own food.
An imminent financial and economic collapse in the USA will directly threaten the supply of food into Canada.
Prices of all foods will continue to rise. Will you still be buying tomatoes at $10 a pound?
All mass produced fruit and vegetables are heavily contaminated with pesticides and herbicides which contribute to or directly cause cancer, lupus, obesity, ADHD, autism, and hormone disruption, among many other diseases.
Every time we buy mass produced non organic foods we are contributing to the environmental damage done by chemical based mass production farming. This method of farming is turning millions of acres of farmland into dust bowls and polluting water supplies all over the world.
Every time we buy imported foods we contribute to the global carbon footprint which is rapidly choking our planet to death.
By growing your own food you get the highest nutritional value and No Pesticides.
The cost of growing your own is so low it's almost free.
You Can Save A Fortune Every Year.
Many of the fresh vegetables coming from the USA have been genetically modified and should be considered unfit for consumption.
Many of the pesticides on imported foods have not even been approved by the FDA.
It's time to learn how to grow your own food. You'll never go back to store bought mass produced vegetables once you know how to grow your own.
