I used to feel like there was no way I could afford to buy organic fruits and veggies for my family of six. I have paid attention to some of fitness guru, Jillian Michael's, tips on how to do it and not go broke! She has a weekly healthy tips page that I receive through email and her latest gave some great ideas on how to grocery shop for organic while on a budget. Some of her suggestions:
1. Buy store brands of organic products.
2. Eat less meat and eat more bean based meals.
3. Try and use coupons.
4. Order on-line in bulk. Some sites- www.gobiofood.com www.naturalgrocers.com
www.theorganicpages.com
5. Buy frozen organic veggies , like broccoli and cauliflower, and frozen organic fruits like berries.
6. If you have a green thumb, try your own vegetable patch.
7. Try stores like BJ's. They carry organic fruits and veggies and you do not have to buy too much so that it spoils before you use it.
Please share if you have other ideas! Always looking to learn more and pass it on.
Yours in health,
Donna
