Tricia, of Farmish Momma blog, invited me to join her Real Food on a Real Budget series and asked if I'd like to contribute a guest post. (Whoops, I made a blooper on the series name when I asked Jeff to make the graphic above. And just realized that now. Oh well, you get the idea.) As soon as Tricia asked me I was really excited about the idea. I thought: 'Now, here's a topic I'm passionate about! Something near and dear to my heart. Something that we could all help each other with so much, by sharing what we've learned with one another.' Real food, as you know, is so important to our family. But how do you afford the healthy food you want to be eating, on a budget? I was eager to hear from others in the series about their discoveries (I have some catching up to do and can't wait to read all that's been shared so far. You can find the whole series here) and looked forward to sharing some things we've learned ourselves. If this is a topic that interests you too, you can read my guest post here. There was so much to say and I could have kept going, but it gives a good idea of different things our family does to save money when it comes to food. (And we still have much to learn, of course. We'd love to be eating more seafood and would like to learn how to do that affordably!) If you have some tips you'd like to share, please do so in the comments! I'd love to hear your ideas about real food on a real budget! (Thanks for inviting me over to your space Tricia, I had fun writing the post!)
