Food Inflation

[dayna]

So I purchase full price meals for my daughter at Keaau High School. I've found it to be less healthy, but cost effective. She finds ways to make it more healthy. She takes more fruits and veggies, less carbs and meats. She's very astute.

I don't find it that expensive to feed my family here. I raise rabbits for meat, purchase some local beef, am given some local pork. I still buy chicken breasts at costco till I am able to grow my own chickens for food.

We only purchase produce from local sources. I buy a LOT of produce from the guy in Ainaloa. I search craigslist daily for produce.

I grow most of our salad greens, cucumbers, etc.

I think most folks could grow MORE of their food than they do. I think more folks could produce food cheaper than they could buy it.
