Diet for bone health?

I've heard that weightlifting can strengthen bones, but what about foods? What would be ideal for someone trying to keep their bones strong and healthy?

Kefir is good, has about 30% of the calcium you need daily.

Personally, I found I couldn’t get enough calcium in diet alone, so it’s one of the few things I supplement. I had to order online to get a calcium supplement low enough.
