Nutiva E-News: Bring In Summer with a Delicious Organic Hemp Salad

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Issue 26 — July 2009

Greetings! As the days are warming up, it's the perfect time to spend more time outdoors. Personally, I'm going to jump on m

y bike in a minute and ride to a lake and go for a swim!

What are your plans this summer to explore the natural world? Be it a lovely park in NYC, backpack in the Sierras, or take the kids for a walk on a leafy green-lined street.

I hope you will also consider enjoying as much fresh and organic foods. This way you will be even healthier while you experience these lazy days of summer.

And for those of us who are workaholics - let's all remember to slow down a bit and enjoy life. Don't worry, your emails and Twiiter messages will be there when we get back from our walk, bike ride, yoga class or run!

In this newsletter we have a delicious Hemp Salad recipe, and a super discount of Nutiva's Organic Hemp Oil in Green Glass. Also, check out the movie review of "Food, Inc." - you do not want to miss this movie!

Hemp Update

This month Maine Governor John Baldacci signed into law LD 1159, the Maine hemp farming bill. The bill establishes a licensing regime for farming industrial hemp, though the licensing is contingent upon action by the federal government.

A joint resolution was passed by Vermont urging Congress to recognize industrial hemp as a valuable agricultural commodity.

Hemp Factoid:

The 1913 Yearbook of the U.S. Department of Agriculture called hemp “the oldest cultivated fiber plant,†mentioned how the crop improves the land, and said that it yields “one of the strongest and most durable fibers of commerce.â€

Movie Review

Food Inc Opens in Movies Houses Across America

This major movie is ripping the curtain back from Big Food Inc. Even the new Obama USDA Sec of Ag requested a screening! The debate of what we call food in America is growing and this film is part of that change.

Book Review

Living Raw Food

by Sarma Melngailis

If you ever are in NYC, please visit Pure Food & Wine's raw food cafe. The cafe's innovative creator, Sarma Melngailis, has a lovely new book out: Living Raw Food

One reviewer stated:

"..... non-preachy primers on ingredients and techniques used in raw preparations make the book accessible and usable for a wider audience than might typically go for a raw foods cookbook."

 

1% Donation Spotlight

Helping Small Philippine Coconut Coop Group

Nutiva donates 1% of its sales to groups supporting sustainable agricul

ture. These groups' activities range from community gardens, to GMO labeling, to the banning of toxic pesticides. In 2010, Nutiva is on track to donate close to $100,000 to these programs.

This month we're delighted to honor Tunkalan Coconut Farmers Cooperative. This 70 member coop based in the Philippines is comprised of small land owners. To date they have received $3000 from Nutiva to expand both their bio-fertilizer plant and and coconut candy operation. This funding provides working capital and essential income for members to grow their micro-enterprise.
