I've been trying to make my own lifestyle more sustainable lately and it's been more difficult than I'd expected. It has also amazed me how little most people know or seem to care about the subject. We've gotten way too detached from the sources of everything we eat and use, and the consequences are bound to catch up to us. Thanks for your passionate and very informative post, Marye.

Echoes the screams of my heart as it tries to get my brain and budget to listen. We’ve started walking this road, but have so very long to go. [...] [...] Very poignant post by Marye.

WE raise chickens and the yolks of our eggs vary from day to day, because of the chicken's diet. But factory farming, organic or not, is still not supporting local farmers. :) Thanks for stopping by!

I get a few organic items from Target for a great price. But as I looked at the eggs, they weren't as deep orange as the Omega 3 eggs I use for my husband. I realized they may be organic but they certainly are still mass produced. I'll be looking for eggs at our local farmer's market when it opens in May! Someone reminded me recently that it wasn't too long ago all of our produce and other items were organic (and local). I was just thinking about our organic eggs today.
