Mirit — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 15:26:10 +0000

Here are a few terms to help you as you vote with your dollars what types of food you will eat.

Storing your Organic Produce

Alton — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 17:42:09 +0000

We all have the same question.

How do I store the different vegetables or fruits from this weeks Harvest?

Often just putting them in the refrigerator accelerates the problem and they dry out. But we all try to make our fresh organic fruits and vegetables remain that way as long as we can. During Harvest Day we have learned that green leafy plants love to be stored in wet towels with flake ice on top of them, [...]

Organic Three Cheese Eggplant Parmesan

Mirit — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 20:15:11 +0000

Summary: If you didn’t know that this was baked instead of fried, you’d never know the difference. By not deep frying the eggplant, which is traditional and soaks up incredible amounts of oil, you decrease calories and fat. Similar to traditional eggplant parmesan, this dish comes out just as bubbly and filled with rich real Italian flavor. Serve with a light organic green salad and don’t forget glass of organic red wine.

Ingredients 2 organic free [...]

It’s the Fiber

Alton — Sun, 30 May 2010 13:29:54 +0000

Imagine eating 100 grams of fiber a day as you hunt and gather from all manners of roots, berries, leaves and plants. Now, realize that the average American eats about 8 grams of fiber a day while they work their way through a week. It was the fiber that helped our ancestors to stay thin and healthy.

Of course all that walking around and running from “things” that eat you helped too.

Did you know? Can [...]

Gulf Oil Tracker

Alton — Sun, 30 May 2010 02:53:16 +0000

I am trying to remain positive about this catastrophic ecological event, but I continue to cry. I do not wish for this blog to become a negative outlet. But I do truly and firmly believe that the DeepWater Horizon Gulf of Mexico oil spill must have our attention and we must pour our hearts, our positive energy and our Spirits into it. Because we must find a deeper meaning to what we [...]

Does Your Diet Prevent Disease?

Adam — Thu, 13 May 2010 22:33:07 +0000

Today many “foods” we have the option of eating taste great but may have little or no nutritional value. There are many recent studies that show we are actually what we eat. Either we are eating to prevent disease and inflammation or we are not, and I can say from experience that it is not easy. The National Cancer Institute says that 8-10 servings of fruits and vegetables per day can decrease your risk of [...]
