Finding ways to fit organic foods into your budget is really not much different than any other endeavor of frugality. At the grocery store where I shop, organic celery only costs about 40 cents more than the non-organic celery when it’s in season. There are also lots of wholesale food stores that sell organic food.

We were poor, Mom and Dad lived every day showing us what it meant to ‘make it do’ and we often ‘did without’ Here are my thoughts on frugal ways to make things do. Store food properly to make it last as long as possible. I grew up with this, in theory and in practice. Buy good clothing, used. Use up your food.

Sure, people can get moving boxes for free by calling their local grocery store, but going back and forth to the store several times in a week to get a few boxes at a time can be a real pain. Moving is definitely not eco-friendly, but there are ways to minimize the waste from packing and moving. Wrapping paper.

CSAs cut out the middle man (the grocery store) between your family and the farms in your area. Sometimes, a CSA will require the fee to be paid up front for the year, but you’ll find that it’s much less expensive than buying the produce that you would get in your bin from the CSA at the grocery store.

Create a meal plan for the week, and base your grocery shopping list on what you will actually eat during the week. In many localities, it’s possible to find stores that allow you to bring your own packaging. You won’t need to make as many trips to the store if you make it a point to maintain what you already have.
