Free Write- My Real Food Journey

Steve, my supervisor and mentor, asked me at the beginning of my internship to think about my real food journey, and what it meant to me through the course of my internship. This was something I knew I would think a lot about, and something that would really develop through my internship. 

My real food journey began years ago. It was a journey that lead me to be who and where I am today. Finding real food is difficult, especially growing up in a culture that thrives on fast, cheap, and convenient food. Starting my real food journey was not planned, nor understood at the time. It wasn't until Steve asked me to think about it, that I realized this is what I had been doing all along--finding real food. 

I am extremely proud of this blog post I wrote for Steve, Local First Arizona, and all the localists out there. The blog I would like to share with anyone who reads this blog entry, is very personal and special to me. It describes what a real food journey is through my eyes, and how it has impacted me. I hope it entertains, inspires, and educates anyone who reads it.
