Resources
Practitioners · Primary Food · Secondary Food
Practitioners are professionals I respect, whose services may interest you.
Primary Food is all the things that make life rich. You'll find resources for adventure, career, creativity, physical activity, recycling & sustainable living, relationships, self-nurture, and spirituality.
Secondary Food is all the stuff you actually eat. You'll find resources for cookbooks, food allergies, healthy school lunches, local food, organics & sustainable eating , recipes, special diets, and vitamins & supplements.
