Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: Locally grown benefit?

Thanks for the insight everyone.  Vikki - very perceptive on the fair-trade issue, that is also of importance!

I agree with the comments so far. The oils are the quality they are because of the fact that they are sourced from wherever the plant or tree grows indigenously. I think that it may also please your class attendees that because of this, there are people who now can earn a respectable living by growing the plants especially for doTERRA. They are earning income and becoming self-sustaining because we love these oils :o)

Just my 2cents!

The locally grown benefit reminds me of some food theory such as
macrobiotics The type of food people should eat should be according to
the climate and as near as possible as it is more natural and follows
human diet in the past (Today, people are eating foods not possible
before) .

Also it may also be with the going green movement. Saving on gas for
transporting foods as well as supporting local businesses.

In terms of nutritional value, veggies and other foods are best fresh,
bananas have to be picked green in South America before they are
shipped. Whereas usually you don't pick it that early normally.

As with the oils they are sourced in their indigenous places,
thousands of miles way from Oregon. Most oils have an indefinite shelf
life with it's therapeutic value intact.

I hope your antendee likes the oils and is okay that it does not come
from Oregon.
