The Rural Voice, 2006-06, Page 41report also noted that financial
incentives could be offered to farmers
to diversify their crop rotation, raise
produce crops, grass-fed dairy and
livestock or organic products. There
needs to be more research into
perennial agriculture. Imagine not
planting every year. Think of the
energy saved and the greater variety
of grains and oils that we could
enjoy.
Here in Huron County we have
programs like the Good Food Box
that encourages more fruits and
vegetables in our diet by supporting
local growers. Look at the increase in
the number of farmers' markets
springing up in many of the small
towns. The public is ready to make
some changes in their diet to improve
their health.
So back to the garden. The old
phrase "you are what you eat" can't
be stressed enough. So when you are
out there surveying all the lovely
produce take along the kids, a local
senior or a neighbour to the market.
Support our local growers this
summer. It is for your health, the
health of our farming community,
and it just feels good.0
