阅读下面的短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Eating healthy doesn’t mean you need to break the bank.Here are tips on how to make your healthy foods go far.
Modern technology allows us to grow crops in climates and at times they naturally would not thrive.However, the availability, price, and even flavor are usually best when fruits and veggies are grown at the right time.Stick to seasonal eating to avoid paving stupid prices on a pint(品脱)of strawberries in winter.
When you buy direct form producers, prices are significantly cheaper and you can be sure of freshness.Plus, you’re supporting people in your own community.To find a farmers’ market nearby, visit LocalHarvest, org.
Grow your own tomatoes, beans, and potatoes at home.Radishes and rhubarb are among the easiest vegetables to grow.For more information on home gardening, see this article about how growing your own greens can save you money.
Shop only for all that you need(and not when you’re hungry-you’ll buy more)to prepare the meals you have in mind.Exception:Buy in bulk during sales, and prepare dishes you can freeze.You can also buy already frozen or canned items, which are kept longer and may be cheaper.Food should never go to waste, but check expiration dates before you eat to stay safe.
When fruits are getting too ripe, you can still use them for baking or making fruit juice with milk.

When I told John, he was 26 as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” He shouted. “Your 27 days are limited.
