Where can we find organic food?
Recently, I had no desire to buy food at the supermarket. It seems like you want to eat, but there is no appetite. We just have to see how the product looks. What can you say about your feet and chicken wings? They are so artificially to some extent. And then I wonder where I can get good food.
The idea of buying in the farmers market is undoubtedly attractive.But what should people who do not have access to such "privileges" do? Real food producers and environmentally friendly are not often in big cities. However, there are other ways in which we can get beautiful sweet tomatoes, juicy apples, or real honey.
Friends and relatives from the village
Most of us have families in villages that are fed, in part, through their own production. The visit to the village always ends with a basket full of products.
So we bring joy to our grandparents, because we visit them often, and we manage to have all kinds of seasonal fruits and vegetables, and often more (pickles and dairy products, pet products from pets). And relatives are people we can trust 100% who will not lie to us about how their product grows.
There are other alternatives for people who do not have grandparents in the villages, but you need to learn about reliable sources with the help of colleagues and acquaintances.
Grandparents in the main market
Among many known and unknown retailers in the market, there are at least some trays with honest and simple manufacturers offering their own products. Also there are at least a dozen grandmothers and grandfathers sitting on the sidewalks and selling their apples from private gardens and cans of honey. Therefore, when you go to the market at a later time, take advantage of this opportunity.
It's easy and quick to know who the producer is and who's just a reseller. The drawback of this source is that there is no guarantee how vegetables, fruits and other products grow, so again - look for recommendations.
Private visit to the farm
Farmers, especially those who maintain the purity and quality of their products, usually have their farm away from the noise and dirty air of the big city. Do your own research and visit them, many give this opportunity.
This is a great way to get to know farmers directly, to carefully study the growth and manufacturing process and to buy products at lower prices than in the market.
Online store
More enterprising and experienced farmers already have their own online store. There is an online platform, where vegetable growers and grocery stores, sell homemade cakes, cheeses, grapes, and many other home-made delicacies. In social networking there are many groups that bring together producers and consumers.
