Teach Your Employees About Real Food

What is real food? Send out a memo asking your employees what they think is the definition of real food? Hold a seminar on the findings.

  • Real food is the opposite of industrial food
  • Real food is old and traditional while industrial food is recent and synthetic.

People everywhere love traditional foods. How about offering a farmer's market at work with local vegetables, fruits, breads, eggs, and cheeses, jams, jellies, yogurt, fresh fish, grass fed chicken and meats, and fresh olive oil, nuts and seeds, fermented soy, whole grains and legumes and fresh herbs. Have a personal chef there to show employees how to cook these traditional foods. Local food is sold in all kinds of venues. These two national sites cover all the options from farmers markets to farm stands: www.localharvest.org, www.ams.usda.gov/farmersmarkets

Try it! What a great experience for everyone to be involved in to learn the most valuable lesson in natural eating.
