Natural Living in the US

Food costs take a big bite out of everyones budget. In Portland, Maine people are getting together to fight the problem. The Portland Food Buying club, which is part of the Portland Food Coop formed a year and a half ago. The Food Buying Club buy local and natural foods, and offers a better deal on many products than the big natural foods stores. They have no overhead and mark up the food by 10 percent so they can keep prices relatively low.
