Organic Foods

     So, I have had an avocado tree in my backyard since the day my family moved in. It's always just been there though and we always had avocados. I never really noticed, until I got older, how kind of cool it was because while everyone had to go out and buy avocados from the grocery store and I could just go in my backyard and get as many as I needed. This unit has me really thinking about just how much people pay for groceries and how much money we could all save if we started our own gardens and grew our own food. Not too mention all the chemicals we would spare our bodies if we did so. It's crazy how much chemicals are used to keep our fruits and vegetables "fresh" for the supermarket. Now, I'm not saying that I'm all of a sudden going to eliminate Pavilions from my daily life, but I do think that everyone should start making a slow transition into growing more of our own foods to save some money. I was having a conversation with my mom the other night and I mentioned to her that in the next couple months I want to start planting some vegetables in the backyard. Not sure how it'll keep up since I'll be working and in college, but I think it would be a nice past time that would allow me to keep some of that money I'm making at work lol Anyways, that's all for this post.
