07. Buying Power: Green Grocery Store Shopping

Hey, Green Junkie!

Have you ever thought about what kind of grocery shopper you are?

Maybe you’re the always prepared type who comes with your itemized list, complete with prices and cash. Perhaps you’re armed with a generic list of the essentials but will definitely be grabbing those limited edition snacks that are practically begging to be purchased. Or maybe you’re a fly by the seat of your pants, a shopper who is notorious for shopping on an empty stomach and just grabbing whatever will get you through the next couple of days. 

No matter what category you fall into, I can promise you that there is room to exercise your buying power and be a little more green with your grocery shopping. 

You see, when we choose to be a little more green with our shopping habits, we actually save money and time, help support our communities and are heaping a healthy dose of love into Mother Earth.

I mean, what’s not to love, right?

Today’s podcast episode is all about green grocery shopping and how you can use your buying power to be a little more environmentally conscious.

What you can expect from this episode:

• What we need to take into consideration when we are buying our food and shopping at the grocery store
• 12 ways to reduce your impact and be more green while you’re grocery shopping
• How a solid plan can save money and the planet at the same time
• Clever ways to remember a reusable bag
• How to be less wasteful with our food
• How to creatively support local farmers and independent grocers in your community and why it’s so important to the environment
• Eat your way to a greener planet

You’ll discover that and so much more in this episode.
