Low-Income Places In Which Organic Food Can Be Seen

By Robert Sutter


It's apparent that organic food of the utmost variety is going to be seen and I have to believe that many areas are going to clamor for it. However, this is not the case and this is especially true in areas which have lower income than others. It's unfortunate that they aren't able to attain these natural products but what can be done in order to help the matter? After taking the time to read an article in the Los Angeles Times, it seems like there is work being done on the matter.

The article in question talked about Compton in particular and it seems like there isn't a great amount of fresh food to be seen. In fact, people within that particular location would have to drive miles and miles before they found a market with substantial crops to be seen. The truth of the matter is that markets in Compton typically have items which have been spoiled, which impacts not only their flavor but nutrition as well. Shouldn't everyone have access to these particular items?

It seems like there are many different authorities that can help the matter, Colle Farmers Market included amongst them. It's apparent that they know a tremendous amount about organic food and how important they are in terms of the world in general. To say that this is the kind of subject that should be looked into with greater detail is nothing short of an understatement. Consumers may have to go about traveling miles out of the way, which shouldn't have to be done in actuality.

The fact that Compton was referred to in the article as a "food desert" is very telling, in my eyes. I do not think that there should be any area in the world with that title attached but it seems like that will happen when there aren't enough substantial crops to go around, if any at all. Even though residents in this particular area suffer from lower incomes, it isn't an excuse. People should be able to afford better food, not only for themselves but for their families as well.

It's apparent that those who have invested in organic food in the past will most likely be able to tell you all of the different facets associated with it. While they are rather substantial in terms of nutrients, I do not think that anyone can argue with the fact that the crops are rather tasty as well. It's important for these qualities to come together in order to create the best items people can put money into. Even those in low-income areas should be able to benefit.
