It’s been such a productive summer and we just realized that the kids start school soon, we got inspired. We want our own children to have a connection to the food that they eat. They are taught about what food production is and how it affects their lives personally. They are lucky to have this knowledge as t
he grow into adults.
We all should have a real connection the food we eat, a healthy connection. Unhealthy food is everywhere, at the market, at any fast food restaurant and even in the schools. There is plenty of evidence about the dangers of an unhealthy diet. Type II Diabetes, Obesity, high cholesterol, heart disease, among many other illnesses are common illnesses today. What are we teaching our children?
We all want our children to be healthy, so that they can grow into strong, happy adults. We want them to eat the food that will help them be productive and energetic. We hear from so many of our members about how excited their kids get when their share has been delivered. We have been called THEIR farmers. The best part, they eat their vegetables willingly and this is the connection to the food that they eat..
We want to support our community by providing locally grown produce possible. We believe that it is just that important for all of us.
