Nutrient Dense Food - Beyond Organic

Great idea! As "certified organic" comes to mean less and less, we can look forward to "certified nutrient dense." Resources: Nutrient Dense Food standard, Remineralize The Earth, The Real Food Campaign.

Note to self:

Daniel Kittredge, executive director of Remineralize the Earth in Northampton, Massachusetts, spearheads this effort in the Northeast. As a second-generation organic grower, Dan recognized the primacy of soil fertility in productivity, taste and other qualities of food. He also realized organic definitions and practices set a low standard for true food quality, and growers need to do more for their soils, beginning with boosting soil mineral levels.

Dan Kittredge Workshops on Nutrient Dense Crop Production
On Sundays October 25, January 31, and February 28, April 25 Dan Kittredge will present a series of four workshops on the principles and practices of nutrient dense crop production. Each will go from 9:00am – 4:00pm at The Lodge at Pony Farm, 19 Putnam Road, Temple, NH 03084.
