September is Organic Harvest Month

 

Celebrating "Organic" is fun for the whole family!

1.      Serve someone special an organic breakfast in bed! Local apple juice, fair trade organically grown coffee or tea, fruit, oatmeal, yogurt and fresh farm eggs. (All items available nationally at natural & conventional supermarkets).

2.      Make an organic donation to a local soup kitchen/shelter from your own organic garden or local market.

3.      Enjoy the earths bounty at its peak! Visit your local farmers' market. Approximately 40-60% of all farmers' market growers grow organically. (Statistics from the Organic Trade Association)

4.      Building healthy soil key to maintaining a healthy food chain. A great way to guarantee rich, organic soil is to start composting!

5.      Treat yourself or someone special to soft and comfy a pair of organic ecoKashmere™ bamboo socks or anything made with organically grown fibers. Studies have shown that in the U.S., it takes about one-third of a pound of chemicals to grow enough non-organic cotton for one t-shirt.

6.      Share an organic treat at the office, or send yummy organic snacks with your children to school. Certified organic raisins, cheese, nuts, fruits, chips and crackers are just some of the possibilities.

7.      Bake some bread from scratch. Use organically grown flour and knead to your hearts content. The house will smell great and by the time the bread is ready you’ll be too!

8.      Have an Organic Harvest dinner party and invite your friends and family. It can be as simple as pizza or as elegant as a multi course Harvest Menu.

9.      Enjoy a glass of organic wine, beer, lemonade or mango juice.

10.  Sleep peacefully resting between organically grown, hypoallergenic sheets, and dream sweet dreams.
