Monday December 3rd at 11am I will be on Rogers
TV Barrie sharing why we need to learn to grow our own produce (Fruits, veggies
and herbs) and how anyone can do it!
For those of you who will not be able to watch this I wanted
to share the information with you. As a
Nutritionist I want my clients to fuel their bodies with the cleanest form of
food and nutrition available. I use
whole food bases supplements, get children free whole food supplements, and
educate my clients about the importance of eating as nature intended. Our earth provides everything we need for
health. The problem is, we are destroying our planet and funding its
destruction with our purchases!
I know that is a strong statement, but it is the truth. When we purchase in-organic foods, processed
foods, and fast foods, we are supporting the destruction of our planet, the in
humane treatment of animals and to top it all off, we are putting poisons in
our bodies! It is no wonder cancer is such a huge problem!
I personally feel one
of the best things we can do is to start to find ways to support better farming
methods by purchasing certified organic, buying from local farmers and growing
our own food!
The good news is the technology exists that allows each of
us to grow our own produce in our homes in as little as 3 feet of space.
Why is this technology so important? I will be covering this throughout my segment
with Rogers TV.
Using the Tower Garden – Home growing system
1)
Its
affordable and saves you money. You can grow up to 20 varieties of organic
fruits, veggies and herbs on your garden – think of the money you will save!
2)
More
Nutritous foods. No chemicals and a more nutritious growing environment than
the depleted soil most of our foods are grown in.
3)
Organic.
No chemicals required (reduced risks for cancer – think of our children and the
environment we want to leave them).
4)
Recycles
water. Our planet is running out of
clean water. Your Tower Garden recycles
the same water over and over again. No
watering required.
5)
Its
simple and mess free. There is no
soil required. When the unit is on (15 on, and 30 minutes off) you plants are
nourished with high nutrient recycled water. When the unit is off your plants
are fed oxygen. This results in faster
growth and more yield. (Tower Garden uses less electricity than a lightbulb!)
6)
We are
changing our childrens future. As a
mom of 4 there is nothing more important to me.
They need a clean earth, clean water and clean food. When we home garden we are changing their
expectations of food and how we treat the earth. What an impact this will have!
7)
Supports
a cleaner environment. You can
significantly reduce your global footprint by growing your own produce. Here in Canada produce is shipped in during
the winter months. This is encouraging
the depletion of fossil fuels, increases pollution and supports in-organic
farming methods. Using a Tower Garden SAVES WATER, LAND AND THE ENVIRONMENT.
I hope you are feeling inspired! We can make such an enormous difference in
our world, our health and for our children, by being conscious consumers. I truly believe this technology is our future.
I hope to see you join us and learn more about vertical gardening.
