food as medicine
Greetings. At Earthmother Farm, we grow vegetables, medicinal herbs, and fruit, on a small-scale near Owen Sound, ON.
“Edible herbs and wild vegetables, plants growing on the mountain and in the meadow, are very high in nutritional value and are also useful as medicine. Food and medicine are not two different things: they are the front and back of one body. Chemically grown vegetables may be eaten for food, but they cannot be used as medicine.”
~ Masanobu Fukuoka
