  I write tons about it on my blog: http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=farm http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=farm http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=fly http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=fly http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=packaging http://joshuaspodek.com/?s=packaging To answer your questions: I buy dry legumes, nuts, seeds, and grains in bulk with containers I bring to the store. Most fruit and vegetables I get from a CSA, which means picking it up weekly from a drop-off point a few blocks away. I get a lot from the local farmers markets, where I also drop off my compost. Yes, I eat seasonally and locally, not that I decided to. It just worked out that way. I didn't buy anything to start the change, but buying a pressure cooker enabled cooking lentils and beans in five or ten minutes, which facilitated things a lot. I don't buy a lot, but the pressure cooker is one of the best purchases I've made. I didn't plan to get into food and cooking. It's just that with every change I made, my food got more delicious, more convenient, cheaper, and created more community.
