Wellness Wednesday
A quick post today but something to think about - medical doctors prescribing food to patients for what ails them. Not only that, but getting it in the same manner that many American's get their pharmaceuticals - conveniently located near or at the medical facilities - and, similar to having an insurance co-pay/reimbursement plan, you don't pay full price.
This "farmacy" in Houston is just such a program. After noticing that many of his patients' health problems were linked to lifestyle - specifically diet, Dr. Garth Davis partnered with an organic food co-op to start prescribing fresh fruits and vegetables.

Cherie, wow, I never thought I would see the day when fruits and vegetables organically grown would be prescribed by a doctor. I guess there's still hope for this old world.
Have a great organic garden planning day.
OMG! Yes, Yes, YES!!!! Is the world going sane or something? :-)
