This is the time to set out your tomato plants as well as lettuce, chard and kale. Spring brings with it the promise of renewal and even whispers of regeneration… and this despite the inflation, layoffs and threat of war.

So we rejoice and welcome Spring.We pay homage to this season of aliveness with an avocado, mango cheesecake. We share with you the magic of combining our alive, organic almond butter and cashew butter along with avocado and mango into a cheesecake -no bake and organic, of course.

Did we mention tomato plants? Ben with GrowVeg, exuding enthusiasm as always, guides us step by step, as he sets them out in his garden.

We next combine Medjool dates and cinnamon with our alive organic tahini into a delightful smoothie.

Our Victory Garden contest follows—we invite you to take us on a walking tour video of your spring time garden.

This week’s special is our alive, organic Brazil Nut Butter. We're taking $5 off!

Our Victory Garden specials this month are Lake Baikal Pine Nut Butter and Blue Cornmeal.

We invite to consider doing an internship with us this summer. You'll be trained in sales and marketing of organic food. There will be field trips to family farms and hands-on experience in making almond butter, other nut butters and chocolates.

Next, Dr. Mark Testa offers us a most informative and alive discussion on intermittent fasting, a royal road to vitality.

We follow with Lou Hollander, who shares with us some secrets of fitness. Mr. Hollander, a triathlete, is 92 years of age.

May we wish you and your family, Springtime good health, prosperity and success,

Jesse Schwartz PhD
President

We would very much like to see your garden. Please take us on a tour. We invite you to submit to us a video.

Our pleasure to award a gift certificate of $150 toward our products for the most empathetic. To us enthusiasm is electric!

Contest ends June 15th.
