Hospital introduces organic food and uses it to treat patients

What is being called the farmacy, a hospital in Houston, Texas is importing organic food from a local co-op.  People will use prescriptions for discounts at an in-hospital market.

Doctor Garth Davis and Kristina Carillo-Bucaram are combining their entreprenurial forces to bring food as the medicine

Kristina's company, Rawfully Organic, is a Houston based food co-op.  The company imports fruits and vegetables from farmers and supplies them to the hospital.  The doctor will write a prescription for the patient and also can prescribe fruits and vegetables.  The patient will take the prescription to the farmacy and can use it as cash.

By using food as a type of medicine, we can become very powerful creatures.
