Nutrition and the Small Child

There is nothing more satisfying to a small child than to enjoy the fruits of their work. When it comes to food, we strive to eat food that is mostly organic or locally grown and definitely unprocessed and without any refined or chemical sugars. We strive towards balanced and truly healthy snacking and we are very open to the ideas and suggestions of the community. One thing that is very important is to instill an understanding of the whole food cycle, from planting the food to its harvest, preparation and consumption. The preparation of food will be very central to our daily routine, and will also be a main inspiration for the creative endeavors of the children, as we invent songs and dances to honor and celebrate the agricultural cycle and our place in it.

What is patriotism but the love of the food one ate as a child? ~Lin Yutang
