Eden’s philosophy
There are 250,000 known plant species in the world, but only 20 of them provide 90% of our food.
We believe that the key to prosperity for the poor lie in underexploited, edible trees and bushes - the lost treasures of Eden.
Our mission is to find those treasures and bring them to people who really need them.

fuck the south !! troy davis denied clemency. →
ATLANTA — Troy Davis, whose death row case ignited an international campaign to save his life, has lost what appeared to be his last attempt to avoid death by lethal injection on Wednesday.
Rejecting pleas by Mr. Davis’s lawyers that shaky witness testimony and a lack of physical evidence presented enough doubt about his guilt to spare him death, the Georgia State Board of Pardons and...

oatmeal with amarena cherries. →
of all the distilled flavors in the world, cherry/almond is by far the best. it can be an effective flavor enhancer, that delicious flavor that you can’t quite put your finger on, to explosive amaretto liqueur flavor-punches. so one of our favorite breakfasts obviously centers around both cherries and almonds. you can follow this recipe, or you can do what we do: on top of plain yogurt...

how to freeze the abundance of greens from the... →
The trick is to blanch them first. What is blanch, you ask? We’ll get to that in a minute, but first you need to prepare your greens. Wash them in cold water. At this point, I usually chop my greens roughly since most of my recipes call for sliced or chopped greens. You don’t have to do this, but I find it makes it easier for me later on. Once you’ve prepared the greens,...

csa success :: garlic roasted potatoes with dill. →
yet another csa success: garlic roasted potatoes with dill. ever since switching to our csa about six months ago, the difference in taste between straight-from-the-farm produce and even store-bought organic product has become apparent. and for some reason i was never really surprised until we received these teeny little potatoes. i’m not sure why i didn’t expect to find the same...
