Where Do You Fit on the Organic Lifestyle Pyramid?
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 10:49AM Forget the old fashioned food pyramid, this one is way cooler. This graphic, which depicts the evolving organic food lifestyle, was put together by the friendly folks at Organic Valley. I think it's a very helpful visual guide to remind people that choosing organic products is just the first step in an overall re-thinking of how we engage with our food.
Where do you fall in this pyramid? Do you think most people aspire toward a more personal relationship with their farmers and the land once they begin choosing organics?

YES! That is how it has evolved for me without a doubt. 14 years ago I started supporting organics with as much of my purchasing power as I could. When you're trying to make the choice for the betterment of future generations, you want to make an educated, informed choice. So my research into organics and food production has just grown and grown. Now I'm growing my own garden - even with my history of having a black thumb! But I'm learning organic techniques and making it work.
Wow, that's great lastoneup! Thanks for sharing!
