Video: Avocado Apple Pie - No Bake, Alive & Organic

Dear brothers and sisters,

May I suggest that out of the depths of winter, we exemplify aliveness with an Avocado Apple Pie, alive and organic- of course!

We begin by making almond milk- one cup of spring water and a heaping tablespoon of our alive, organic almond butter.  Blend. Voila’, it  flashes into almond milk. So much fresher than what's been sitting on a store shelf since the dawn of the Cenozoic!

Let's add 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and blend. Then  2 cups rolled oats and blend. Next scoop out an avocado and blend yet again. Chop two apples into cubes. Blend. Add 1/2  cup of Flame Raisins, a half teaspoon of cinnamon, a half teaspoon of vanilla, a tablespoon of our Hawaiian Honey and a tablespoon of our Vermont Maple Syrup.  Blend  and scoop into a pie dish lined with parchment paper. Top with chopped and pitted Medjool dates, walnuts and Flame Raisins. Keep in your fridge for 4 hours. There you have it- an Alive, organic Avocado Apple Pie.

Next Ben, with GrowVeg, bubbles with enthusiasm as he supercharges his garden soil with compost and well rotted manure.  This is in  preparation for a vibrant, spring growing season. We follow with a delightful recipe on raw, macadamia nut fudge squares.

To celebrate our full line of chocolates returning to stock, our Special this week will include our Almond Butter, Walnut Butter and Brazil Nut Butter filled chocolate bars. All three of them $2 off this week. Regularly $9.99, yours for $7.99.

Our Victory Garden sale includes Cashew Butter, Sunflower Butter and Short Grain Brown Rice.

Jenna, a farming lady in Ohio, tells us what we can learn from the tragic train derailment that recently occurred in her state. She goes on to discuss the consequences of mechanistic agriculture in general and ends on a note of hope and resilience.

We conclude with a farming gentleman, with Daisy Creek Farms, telling us the things we must start in March beginning with sweet potatoes and potatoes. Then there are  tomatoes, eggplant and peppers to be started from seed and summer squash – zucchini and yellow crookneck. We trust that this will inspire you, brothers and sisters to get growing!

Our  privilege to share with you. We welcome your comments and suggestions.

Please accept our best wishes for good health prosperity and success to you and your family,
