Over the last few years I have come to realize more and more that the foods we are eating are not meeting our bodily needs. My goal is to find foods that are free of pesticides, antibiotics, hormones and other chemicals and make as many meals from scratch in order to provide the most nutritious foods for my family.

Salads in Schools
This seems like a promising initiative to bring a salad bar to all schools. This blog (which is an interesting study in school lunches) post cites a short article stating that consumption of fresh fruits/veggies increased 25% after beginning to offer a salad bar at 3 different schools. Doesn't this seem obvious? Our children are crying out for healthy choices at school, why don't we respect them enough to offer salads every day as an option?
