After a few years of having a pandemic mindset, it\u2019s no surprise that the healthy food trends<\/a> for 2022 reflect an intimate connection between human beings and our life-sustaining planet. Trends for this year include a deeper look into how what we eat affects the planet and, even more importantly, how we might make the world a healthier place by making changes in our diet and habits. Think sustainable packaging, less food waste, more home gardens, and some fun flavors to make it all come together.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Urban farming and indoor gardening<\/h2>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

As the world\u2019s population rises and more areas turn suburban and urban, we\u2019re starting to think outside the box when it comes to growing the food that sustains us. Although it may be difficult to fathom in a rural state like Indiana, urban farming is incredibly important in larger cities and bustling suburbs like those surrounding Chicago and New York. Many urban-farming concepts also can be instituted here in the Hoosier state, creating fun spaces in cities like Greenfield, Carmel, Indianapolis, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Urban gardening creates the ultimate opportunity for sustainable and locally grown produce. Hydroponics, aquaponics, rooftop greenhouses, urban greenhouses, and vertical gardening all conserve space by using alternative growing methods. Some stores, such as Whole Foods, even have greenhouses on their roofs or mushroom gardens along the tops of their stores\u2019 aisles. It\u2019s innovative thinking like this that will allow our planet to support us as the population continues to grow.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The reducetarian movement<\/h2>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

You\u2019ve heard that people go vegetarian or vegan to help the planet. While this is a worthy concept, many love meat and need the great bioavailability of nutrients it provides. Enter: the reducetarian movement. Reducetarians are those who still eat meat but purposefully eat less to help our food system remain sustainable. Anyone who follows the Meatless Monday trend is leaning in this direction. Think of it as eating meat in moderation.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

The movement also focuses on high-quality meats and animal products<\/a> that come from farm animals that were raised more in pastures than barns. We\u2019re familiar with this concept in the Hoosier state. Indiana has a lot of local farms, raising and selling pasture-fed meats and eggs as well as cheeses and other dairy products.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

Meal planning systems and online grocery shopping<\/h2>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

The pandemic made online grocery shopping a staple in many Hoosier homes. This trend is here to stay, both for its convenience and cost effectiveness. Meal-planning kits<\/a> are popular for the same reasons. Believe it or not, this is a healthy option for anyone just learning to cook for themselves and wanting to prepare nutritious and delicious meals at home. Look for more companies to spring up with meal kits of every kind and for online grocery shopping to become even more efficient.<\/p>\n<\/div>
