Thomas & I met Kate & her friends at Happy Camper for lunch after the marathon & I got the crispy chicken salad

And we split a side of fries

Thomas came back to mine later & we made chicken enchiladas with mexican rice & garlic bread

Then made pumpkin sugar cookies for dessert

Had a snack & coffee before lunch in the office

My team & I ordered Sweetgreen for lunch while they were visiting me last week

I had a whole wheat toasted bagel with half garden vegetable half honey almond cream cheese and a coffee for breakfast the next morning

A pop up produce farmer’s market came to the lobby to our office building

And they had so many yummy items to choose from!

I grabbed corn on the cob, a pumpkin & brussel sprouts

Then went out to dinner with my team & had a glass of wine & rigatoni à la vodka as my main!

Big corporations hedge their risks and suppliers and guess what, YOU SHOULD TOO!

In a world of uncertainty and POOP lettuce + deregulation and cost cutting at the expense of people and our planet we cannot simply hope that these big corporations have our best interests in mind.

By reducing our dependence on any one system, we are hedging risk AND creating systems of care for our neighbors and environment.

We reduce emissions from long haul trucking.
Workers are paid a fair wage.
We eat seasonally and become less dependent on industrial mono crops.

SO MANY WINS.

Sign up for a weekly delivery and start with a small share. Challenge yourself to new ingredients or customize your box weekly.

What I made with some of the produce from my Tomato Mountain Farm delivery 🍅🌿

Tinned mussels in basil pesto from Fishwife with my Sun Gold tomatoes + fettuccini 🦪🍝

And for something sweet: white peaches simmered with cinnamon + sugar to make a homemade white peach cobbler coffee syrup 🍑☕️✨

A very delicious way to put the produce delivery to work 🤍
