What Our Members Say
We asked our members what belonging to the Root
Connection has
meant to their families. Here are some of their
answers:
"I am a new member of the Root Connection and just
picked up my
first weekly supply of veggies. WOW! I am so
impressed! Never in my
wildest dreams have I ever dreamed of such luscious,
wonderful
produce. The lettuce heads are enormous, and the
leaves are
delicate, tender, and so flavorful. I'm going to
tell everybody I
know they'd better become a member quick. What an
incredible find
your farm is. Our fridge is now full of yummy, fresh
greens, and
herbs and beautiful radishes. I can't wait for each
meal so I can
eat some more." —Cindy
"Our Claire is one of the only 4 1/2 year olds we
know who loves
kale and spinach and kohlrabi, all because of the
farm. It was a
big thrill for her to visit the children's garden,
too."
—Kevin
"Personally, I feel very good about supporting an
operation such as
yours. All your workers have a great working
environment, and we
can actually support a business that pays its
workers a livable
wage! More deeply though, we all feel more connected
with the earth
and with the life which springs forth from it to
nourish our
beings. I felt like the veggies came from a friend's
garden."
—Jim
"There is something so motivating about being handed
a huge sack
full of the yummiest vegetables ever, each week,
that reminds me of
how some people subscribe to exercise programs. Sure
they could
exercise on their own; but they do not get out and
do it unless
they sign up and have a specific time and place to
meet. That's me
and vegetables. I know how many we should be eating
and the myriad
of reasons organically-grown is best. But when I'm
in the grocery
store, I fall much too short of the goal. Joining
the Root
Connection solves that for me and my family. We eat
more green
stuff. And it tastes good." —Beth |
