Best Farmers’ Market In Arizona’s East Valley

Superstition Farm is located in East Mesa at 3440 S Hawes Rd, Mesa, AZ 85212. This place is so great that we wanted to share it with our patients. We believe that chiropractic care and eating well go hand in hand, and it is also great to support local Arizona businesses.

This is a family-owned and run farm that is dedicated to raising animals and producing food in an environmentally-conscious way. Superstition Farm holds tours of their facilities, and they also have a petting area where you can pet and feed the animals.

One of the most exciting aspects of this Arizona family farm is that they hold a year-round farmers’ market every Thursday from 4:30pm-7:30pm. The kind of food that can be found here are veggies & fruits, grass-fed beef, chicken, fresh-baked breads, eggs, popcorn, pasta, bbq sauce, mustards, catsup, salsa, desserts, and more.

Thoughts of a Chiropractor

Thoughts of a Chiropractor

Returning from a chiropractic conference in California. Spent 2 days with other chiropractors and virtually never saw anyone drinking soda. I saw healthy peeps within normal weight range and lots of energy. Sitting on the plane home to Arizona now, and I see a very different picture.

I am watching 2/3 of the airplane passengers drink soda, and it is 9pm at night. Now they will go home and wonder why they can’t sleep. Some will take medicine to make them sleepy, others will watch TV and toss and turn all night, and others will wake up with headaches. But most will blame something else other than their health choice for the negative results.

What we put in our bodies either has a positive or negative action on health. I can’t wait to get to work tomorrow and continue to educate people about health. The soda thing just gets me so fired up! HEALTH IS NOT AN ACCIDENT, IT IS A CHOICE! ~Dr. David Reed

Adopt A Family at Reed Chiropractic

Each and every year, Reed Chiropractic chooses to sponsor a family or organization that needs our help. This year we have chosen to sponsor a family here in Tempe who has a 15-year old son. It is one of our patient’s neighbors, and they are struggling to not only pay their monthly rent, but also struggling to purchase basic necessities such as toiletries and clothes.

We would appreciate any support you might be able to give. If you are interested, please bring your donation to Reed Chiropractic anytime before December 21st, and we will deliver any and all items received to the family. Thank you for your generosity!
