\"\"<\/a>I am delight to be writing this post just after having meet in a celebration with the folks at Rhibafarms for the two years\u00a0they have supplied me\u00a0with sprouts and wheatgrass while living in Arizona.<\/p>\n

If you are anything like me you are filled with gratitude when you find the opportunity to make connections with people in the health and wellness industry who while attending to your needs\u00a0provide\u00a0so much more.\u00a0 That’s what you get with Rhibafarms.<\/p>\n

Whenever I move to a new place I always take time to find how I can source my\u00a0food and other basic necessities locally.\u00a0 I like supporting local business for the fact that you know you are contributing to\u00a0small businesses often made up of\u00a0people from the community in which you are living.\u00a0 By contributing to their efforts you know you are enhancing the welfare of many other families, people with names and faces that make up the community in\u00a0which you live and grow.<\/p>\n

That’s what I found with Rhibafarms (to learn more about them click here<\/a>).\u00a0 Rhibafarms was developed by Mark and Marlo and has become a multifaceted operation in farming\u00a0supplying the local community with\u00a0a variety of\u00a0\u00a0vegetables and sprouts, as well as dried herbs, spices and teas\u00a0all\u00a0developed from their\u00a0farming practices.<\/p>\n

Aquaponics are\u00a0used to grow\u00a0their vegetables, while their sprouts are\u00a0harvested with the use of coconut shells.\u00a0Every plant is fed a good dose of clean reverse osmosis water,\u00a0 love and attention.\u00a0 Rhibafarms\u00a0produces can be picked up at several locations around the area.<\/p>\n

In addition to their variety of produce, they have an Adopt-a-Chicken program in which your money goes towards housing and maintaining a chicken which in turn provides you with healthy beautiful batch of eggs.\u00a0 According to their website, one chicken\u00a0can produce up to as much as\u00a0six eggs a week!\u00a0 Those busy chicks, I tell ya!<\/p>\n

I’ve enjoyed getting my sprouts and wheatgrass at Rhibafarms\u00a0for two years and in such time it has been the people, their character and warmth that has made receiving my goodies all the more delightful.<\/p>\n
