RE: If you ate today, thank a farmer. My tribute to the people who feed us. (3 of 7)
Another great post, I support my local farmers and grow my own veggies too!

Right on! I'm always in conflict between growing my own food vs supporting the farmers, and end up just growing a few things like cherry tomatoes and herbs just to keep my hands dirty a bit. There's a great quote from Wendell Berry about how even if we don't farm, we do.... "Urban conservationists may feel entitled to be unconcerned about food production because they are not farmers. But they can't be let off so easily, for they are all farming by proxy."
