Fermented Foods: In-Season in the Off Season
by Jared Rice | January 23, 2013
Right about this time of year the produce aisle of the grocery store starts feeling less than inspiring. In-season options are limited to storage vegetables like potatoes, onions and winter squash, which are getting old. Citrus is delicious, but you can only eat so many oranges and grapefruits.

Buy a Pathway Product to Plant a Tree
by Village Green Admin | January 23, 2013
Village Green has partnered with Trees for the Future and will plant one tree in a developing country every time a customer makes a purchase that includes a Pathway product.
Trees for the Future is a locally based nonprofit organization whose mission is to plant trees within rural communities in the developing world, enabling them to restore their environment, grow more food, and build a sustainable future.
Trees for the Future also works with local farmers and community groups to help them better support themselves, and to restore degraded lands to sustainable productivity by planting trees that not only thrive in poor soil conditions, but that also benefit the local area in a multitude of ways. Through their worldwide network of technicians, volunteers, and community leaders, they help rehabilitate environments across the globe.
With the help of our customers, we’re looking forward to creating positive impact through our partnership with Trees for the Future.

Truth is, from intestinal parasites to food intolerances to emotional stress, digestive imbalances can have a variety of causes. (more…)
