Video: High Summer Avocado, Walnut & Tomato Drink

Dear brothers and sisters,

We are delighted to bring you our High Summer Avocado, Walnut and Tomato Drink, alive, organic and vital-of course. Imagine starting your day empowered in this way.

We follow this with a magnificent talk by Ben with GrowVeg who tells us how to grow the most flavorful strawberries in containers, just the thing for people with only a balcony or windowsill growing space.

Then Jeffrey Smith gives a profoundly insightful and disturbing  talk on how the escape of fast growing, genetically engineered salmon might lead to the disappearance of natural salmon and have a disastrous effect on the oceanic ecosystem.

On a lighter note, we announce the return of our almond butter, berry filled and Brazil nut butter chocolate bars.

We offer you an opportunity to  show us around your Victory Garden. We want to see your tomatoes and rows of lettuce and kale. Go ahead and enter the contest.

Please accept our best wishes for good health, prosperity and success to you and family,

Jesse Schwartz PhD
President

View product

20% Off!

Living Tree Community Foods Organic Golden Flax Seed Flour is American grown and high in Fiber, but low in Carbs. A great addition to your baking projects, smoothies or granola.

One of the most extraordinary benefits of flax seeds is that they contain high levels of mucilage gum content. Mucilage is a gel-forming fiber that is water soluble and has incredible benefits on the intestinal tract. The mucilage can keep food in the stomach from emptying too quickly into the small intestine which can increase nutrient absorption.

New! Items For July
