Another webpage at random...

I was, just now, looking for the source of the useful anti-aging substance, L-Carnosine (meats, fish, poultry, I believe), and I stumbled across this...


http://www.nutritional-supplement-educational-centre.com/anti-aging-natural-s...

I saw that sprouted grains, fresh vegetables, and fruits, are anti-aging in nature.

More than that, the article lists several aging conditions we live with.


How much better, I thought, that we should (could) grow trees and veggies/fruits on heritage land, protecting the soil micro organisms.

Look at physical exercise, out of doors, we would gain! Use it or lose it.

And...the sheer vitality of the foods we would grow...that sparkle of look and scent that makes us want to gobble!


Plus, growing with soil micro organisms intact (protected by growing among weeds and grasses) is so much easier!


Nutrient-laden water is drawn up from far below, and conserved, by living mulches of weeds and grasses...a haven for soil micro organisms which feed food plants, and, thereby, every living creature.

There is just no reason NOT to grow our own...and share as widely as possible.


I have heard organic growers try to justify the high prices of their produce, saying that they put the value of their unsold food back into compost!

What a waste of their efforts!

...When the sparkle of truly worthwhile nutrition, at lower prices, would be their finest advertising! ...When the absence of any price barrier would automatically create devoted consumers!


Why lose the income from the majority of cash-cautious people, only to throw over-priced produce into the compost bin?


How many consumers don't even go to farmers' markets where they expect high prices?


The most important 'business' hoped for by organic growers is 'volume sales'. No one gets 'volume sales' from a high-priced product...only from lowering the price, slowly, until they achieve the price that the majority will/can pay.


One lady I heard of was concerned for the homeless living in the western coastal rain forests. She decided to plant squashes at the edge of the trees...leaving the harvest for those folks.

There are so many seeds in a single squash.

I hope she is still doing that.
