Every week I make my way into the Queen Victoria Market or Ceres Market to gather food for my family. There is something lovely about walking slowly & feasting my eyes on the fresh fruit & vegetables.
As a nutritionist I am inspired by the market & love meandering through, wishing I could share the experience with everyone- the impact on my senses... getting excited as the seasons change... absorbing the live energy of wholesome food.... What a treat!!
It is a gift of nature that we have all that we need to keep us healthy & tend to our common ailments. Food has long been ignored as our source of LIFE but times are changing, awareness is growing & good food is being honoured once more.
I am grateful to the food growers, especially the organic & bio dynamic farmers. I am grateful to the pickers & collectors who bring the harvest in. I am grateful to the keepers who hold the food ready for us to meander by & gather what we need to keep us nourished.
Happy Eating!
