2009-10-13 Is healthy, home-made baby food just pulp fiction - Times Online

But is there any reason to question the health implications of shop-bought baby food Not according to the organic lobby, which points to information from the Government and rsquo;s Pesticide Residues Committee that shows that residues are rising in common weaning foods such as apples, pears and bananas. and ldquo;Cooking at home might control ingredients but it can increase exposure to pesticides, and rdquo; says Anna Rosier, managing director of the baby food company Organix, which supports independent research into food quality and child health through the Organix Foundation. and ldquo;Unlike the raw foods you buy in shops, there are strict limits on the levels of pesticides allowed in manufactured baby foods, so they contain low levels of residues. and rdquo;

2009-04-17 Go Organic: A Month of Organic Eating by Laura Kaliebe

Of all the places I have hunted for organic food, co-ops are my favorite. Farmers markets are fantastic places to find fresh, organic food, but they arent always convenient. At most farmers markets its difficult to buy anything other than meat or produce. Chain grocery stores dont have a large selection of organic products, and when they do, I have my doubts. (Organic cheese from New Zealand Healthy for me and the cows, but the carbon emissions released in transporting the cheese halfway across the globe surely negate some of the environmental benefits. ) At co-ops I can consistently find all of the food I need in one place. Most co-ops also take the origin of the food into consideration, selling locally-grown food whenever they can. (

2009-04-24 The Green Pregnancy Diet Momlogic

Good question. This book was inspired by the fast that I was not eating an optimal diet when I first found out that I was pregnant with my son, who is now a toddler. I have been a vegetarian for life, so on a basic level I ate "green" since I avoided the hormones in meat and the mercury in fish completely. But I did not eat organic food all the time. Also, part of a green diet is getting the right nutrition. In my first trimester, I didnt know to handle the constant hunger and often pigged out on no-so-healthy comfort/carby foods like pizza and protein bars, most of which are super high in sugar. Without wanting to sound hyperbolic, I realized that I need to change and made a complete transformation, almost overnight. Once the knowledge of carrying a baby sunk in, I could not bring myself to buy a single dairy, fruits or vegetable

2009-10-03 My Picky Toddler Wont Try Anything New.

Although we try to eat really great foods at home, there are times when our busy hectic schedules allow for more processed and packaged foods to sneak in. In my household, we regularly do one week sugar sweeps. This is where we only eat real foods for one week. Things like fruits and veggies, organic meats and dairy, whole and sprouted grains, etc. My kids are old enough to look at packaging of things like peanut butter and apple sauce and see what brands do not have any sugar added. This seems to cleanse the palate and open the kids up to more variety and healthier foods. It is a great one for Mom as well. Really watch those baby foods. Many of our toddlers become

2009-08-27 Save money by making your own baby food

Place vegetables such as peeled sweet potatoes, peas, carrots, green beans and winter squash into a steamer basket placed in a pot with a few inches of boiling water. Cover and steam until soft enough to pierce with a fork. Next, place the steamed vegetables in a blender or food processor with a little of the cooking liquid and blend until completely smooth. Use your judgment regarding the consistency your baby needs. Younger babies will need a soupier texture which will progress to a thicker texture over time. After you have reached a desired consistency that poses no risk of choking, spoon the baby food into ice cube trays. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze. Once the cubes are frozen, remove from the ice cube tray and place in freezer zip lock bags.

Building upon an already successful urban farming model, Weavers Way seeks to continue to increase access to local, organic food and offer agricultural education to a greater population. Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a popular approach to farming and food distribution that serves these two goals. CSA involves a group of consumers who become "shareholders" in a farm by paying a lump sum to a farm at the beginning of the year, when a farmer most needs money to cover start-up expenses. Shareholders then receive a basket of diversified products produced by the farm each week throughout the growing season. Through this model, CSA members share the risks and benefits of food production. CSA ensures that farmers have a consistent market for their product. By eliminating middlemen, consumers feel more directly connected

2009-01-22 Revelstoke Times Review - Your Best source for Community News in Revelstoke and region.

In the last ten years consumers have become increasingly wary of many food products that have been contaminated by intensive industrial agricultural practices. From Melamine, E-coli, BSE, to listeria; there are plenty of questionable practices out there. The love, sweat, and tears that bring Wild Flight Farm foods to our community guarantees us products of outstanding quality. Furthermore, organic foods have a substantially higher nutrient content than corresponding foods commercially available. Nutrient poor soil and industrial fertilizers both serve to grow food that is of lower calibre taste-wise and nutrient wise too. Food has become cheaper in the last half century as well. In 1950 the average Canadian spent 20 per cent of their income on food, and now we spend only 10 per cent. Spending extra on safe and nutritious food is
