Healthy Holiday Gift Giving--Inspire the Magic of a Garden
As I have written about before, there is great power in your purchasing power. Food activist Frances Moore Lappe writes, “Every aspect of our lives is, in a sense, a vote for the kind of world we want to live in.” One option is to give gifts related to gardening. Gardening can inspire complete health- a mind, body and spirit approach to wellness. There are two wonderful local companies that provide amazing products related to starting your own garden:
Green Heron tools are currently offering some useful Holiday Gift Collections and you can learn more about the story behind Happy Cat's seeds on this episode of WHYY's great program Friday Arts.
If the recipient of your gifts has neither the time nor the space for a garden, perhaps a CSA share is a good option (yes, this a shameless plug for an Inverbrook Farm CSA share). We are currently taking members for the 2013 CSA season. Click here for more information about Inverbrook Farm CSA. Click on the picture below to view a slideshow sampling of the delicious healthful produce available in a CSA share. Happy Gift Giving!
