As parents, we want what is best for our children. We ensure they wear their seat belts, we read to them, make sure they brush their teeth, look both ways before crossing and stay away from danger. When it comes to children and food, somehow we don’t know what is the best thing to do. Children seem finicky and only want to eat cheese, pasta, pizza, chicken fingers or milk and cookies. They don't like vegetables and it seems like they are in charge. At the same time, we notice that they are freq …

Have you heard of a CSA? This is a program where a group of individuals (consumers in the local community) pledge their support to a nearby farming operation. With this support comes the sharing of the risks and benefits of food production. The system is simple: shareholders stop by the farm on a designated day to pick up their weekly rations. The final step is to enjoy the produce and to try new recipes that unlock the delicious flavors and benefits of local produce! Ort Farms has created a sys …

I am a nutritionist and writer based in Philadelphia. I discovered I was gluten intolerant 3 years ago right before I started graduate school in nutrition. Luckily, I had access to medical, nutritional and social resources that helped me tremendously.

If you follow the diet or have fri …

What is a CSA ? The idea behind Community Supported Agriculture, is that a local farmer grows for a group of members who have purchased “shares” in the harvest. Members pay at the beginning of the season in March, when the farmer most needs the money. When the crops start coming in June, the farmer delivers a weekly assortment of vegetables, herbs and some fruit. 100% of your food dollars go to the person who is growing it and you are supporting sustainable local agriculture and get freshly …

Welcome to the Central NJ Clean Eating Meetup Group. I've come to the realization that to live a healthy lifestyle, I have to be willing to step up.  As such I took on being an organizer for those in the same vibe.  I enjoy learning new things and most especially when it comes to eating.  Life is about fun, and cooking is one of the most creative outlets for people, let's share it.  Thank you.
