I'll have to check it out again next time I'm in the area since it may have more than I thought. Personally, I don't hate Walmart, I especially use their photo finishing services because they're so convenient. I just hate their long line-ups at the check out. Which is usually why I don't go there regularly. It’s been a while since I’ve been to WalMart! I’ll have to check it out again next time I’m in the area since it may have more than I thought.

I, too, am excited about the initiatives underway to provide more fresh and local food to the school lunch program. Gardens are part of this plan. Great news!

I remember that in the movie Food Inc. it was mentioned what a huge impact Walmart was making for increasing the purchase of organic brands. I am excited to see how the issue of food and sustainability is beginning to get more press and interest. I really have been enlightened recently and am eager to investigate other ways (like growing gardens in public school yards)that we can help foster a better understanding of the importance of fresh, wholesome food and the connection it plays with our physical and mental well being.
