How to Afford Healthy Food

Healthy food doesn't mean that you have to spend a lot, it's all about that which must go in one's pot. An integrated course of natural and artificial food over a day is what we call a healthy food which can be easily afforded by one and all.

1 Prioritize your purchases. Many organic farmers and distributors around the country offer community supported agriculture (CSA) boxes with local organic produce made to order with seasonal vegetables and consumer specified ingredients.

Eating healthy organic and natural foods can provide you with a lot of nourishment.

One of the biggest obstacles that I often hear when people begin on the real food journey, is that healthy food is so expensive. Many people feel like they can’t afford healthy food. While I do agree, healthy food is expensive, so is just about everything else. I can make meals at home with quality ingredients way cheaper than I can eat at the fast food joint down the street.

I am very frugal by nature and try very hard to pinch my pennies on just about everything. Our house is furnished with used items. We do a lot of DIY home projects. All our kids’ clothing are hand-me-downs. We cloth diapered Bailey. And I make almost all of my toiletries and cleaning supplies. Frugal I am! The food budget is no exception to the rule. I like to spend $100 a week on food and toiletries for our family of four. This also includes eating out. We could do it for less, but this is where we feel most comfortable. Any extra is fun spending money or savings for something special. You better believe I try to save that extra cash! Here are my best tips on how to keep the grocery budget in check so you can afford healthy food for your family.
