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 |
