We love the delivery and just saves me from having to go to the store every day. Hey Kristie. I love this ed. idea of showing the kids that food doesn't come out of a box and letting them see it for themselves. We've turned some of our neighbours onto this idea as well so I'm glad to see people are embracing the idea. I checked out your link too, very impressive. Thanks K. Thanks girls.

My community is very progressive and already so good at this; it’s just part of our culture now that so many here have been working hard to proliferate. My favorite are the ed. programs for kids that allow them to tromp around the farms, see how food grows and experience with their senses all that growing and eating good food entails. I am posting a local farm link for an inspirational example of how it is done on the north coast of CA. http://www.redwoodrootsfarm.com/index.php -K This is so fantastic that you are using your celebrity to support organic, sustainable, and local farming.

I started using Farm Fresh to You after you tweeted something about them. We get a small box of mixed fruit and veg every week and it's been great. We've had about 4 deliveries already. I get veggies and fruit I would not normally buy and it forces me to look up recipes to use them. It also means my 3 year old is introduced to fruits and veggies that I might not think of giving him. The quality has been very good and I look forward to my weekly delivery. I can't wait to get the recipe for the roasted sweet pepper hummus. I got a bunch of them in yesterdays delivery. Hurray!!
