Food Philosophy

We aim to inspire you…

...to eat a diet based on natural, real food that promotes health and that tastes good. A food filled with unrecognizable synthetic chemicals made in a lab is not substance for the body and will not sustain health; it only makes you sick, tired and fat.

...to explore a plant-based diet because it is healthier for you and for the planet. Go to the farmers market and meet the person who grows your food. Plant a garden. Homestead. Eat with the seasons and learn how to eat intuitively again.

...to be a conscious eater. When you do consume animal-based products, take the time to talk to your local farmers. They can educate you on whether it was: humanely raised in a clean environment, on a natural organic diet for that species, free-range, free of antibiotics and hormones.

...to experience the cultures of people around the world through their food.

And most importantly ...to become a conscious eater in a sustainable way that works for you because there is no guilt in eating real foods. All things can be enjoyed in moderation.

About The Founder

Natural Farmacy promotes a holistic attitude in mind, body and spirit. It was established with the goal of developing a resource to explore and honor traditional foods in their most natural state. As a society as a whole, we have forgotten what real food really is. We have lost touch with where our food comes from and the importance of communal eating with our loved ones. We have become over-medicated and over-stimulated on our over-processed foods. This food renegade aims to bring back Sunday dinners, inspire others to go get local at the farmers market, get dirty on a farm, get messy in the kitchen and to go read some Michael Pollan.

Tricia Vevurka, a food naturalist, who is always striving for balance between her deep appreciation for international ingredients and local food advocacy, received her certification in plant-based nutrition from Cornell University's online school and holds a B. S. in Cultural Anthropology from Radford University. She resides in Charlotte, NC with her husband and furry kids where she is passionate about eco-sustainable lifestyle choices, frequently travels internationally via her cooking, works her urban farm and can always be found at the local farmers market.
