And its the perfect day for a weekend treat and visit your local farmers, Is my favorite to search for the freshies veggies out there!.
Every week for the month of December @embellishmaui + @angiediazphotography are gifting a CSA veggie basket + floral bouquet to a member of our community!! Yay for healthy food and all the nutrients to finish 2020 strong. All freshies Grown with love by amazing local farmers Girl Squad @petaloomfloral.
Did you knew Most produce loses 30 percent of nutrients three days after harvest?... isnβt it a surprise how quickly fresh produce loses its nutrient value after harvest? Do you know How many Miles does your produce travel? ...University of California studies show that vegetables can lose 15 to 55 percent of vitamin C, for instance, within a week. Do you spend tons of money in extra in vitamins ? Then medical bills For sicknesses due to lack of good nutrition. Google is your friend and organic is the new Normal.
The girls at Petaloom have one of the most dreamy flower fields in Maui + they also grow yay! , usually at @upcountryfarmersmarket on the weekends. If you feel like connecting with your source of energy they also accept volunteers from our community . Iβve been loving so much getting to know more people who loves and treasures this island so much and honored to work on the land. I love my farmers . Everybody has an special gift.
