    What a great link, thanks for sharing! If you're living in Australia this sounds like a wonderful opportunity for fresh, organic food.

    In Canada, you could think about joining a CSA where you would get weekly in-season organic food. Pick up is either at the farm or at another pick up location in the city. Check out the links below or look for a CSA in your area.
