Organic Morning.....

We started the day early and decided to visit two of our local, organic farmers that we will stock at Vitalize. Our first stop was Rosas Farms where we bought several items for our house. We bought farm fresh chicken eggs, feta chicken sausage, and grass fed ground beef. We also stocked up on another bottle of Al's homemade Organic BBQ sauce! After we pulled away from Rosas, we continued the drive north to Bay Lake U-Pick Organic Blueberry Farm. We were met by several nice people who equipped us with buckets and guided us to where we would be picking. They have over 4 acres of organic blueberries and the trees are stocked FULL! My favorite part was picking them straight of the tree and not worrying about the nasty pesticides you find on store bought blueberries. The only thing they use here is water! Oh yea, when you go, make sure to treat yourself to some organic blueberry ice cream that they make fresh at the farm! YUM! We are so fortunate to have such great local, organic farmers here in our county. Let's make sure to support these families and buy their amazing products. The drive is worth the peace of mind knowing that the food you put in your bodies is free of the nasty antibiotics, weed killers, and pesticides commonly found in conventional groceries. If you can't make it to these farms, don't worry! We will always stock their products so we can bring their farm to you! I can't wait for dinner tonight and whole grain, blueberry pancakes in the morning! - Dustin
