Eating Local
If you’ve followed a Whole 30 program, you are aware of the benefits of eating local foods. Fort Collins offers ample opportunities to eat local produce, eggs and meat through CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture), food coop’s like Door-To-Door Organics and Farmer’s markets. If you’re new to the paleo lifestyle, and don’t know where to get started, below are some links to get you started. And, if you still have questions, Robb Wolf recently posted an article by Amber Karnes about how to find and join a CSA. Also, Emergent Fitness offers a coop through Door-To-Door organics at a 10% discount. If you are interested, contact Door-To-Door and mention that you are a part of the coop through Emergent Fitness.
