For a girl who grew up just minutes from one of the fastest paced cities in the world, life in the country never loses its appeal.

This is one of my favorite destinations; Garden of Eve on the rural North Fork of Long Island, NY where young environmental advocates Chris and Eve Kaplan-Walbrecht turned organic gardening into a farm dedicated to providing the area with a variety of produce, flowers, and herbs cultivated sustainably and without chemical herbicides and pesticides.   The couple also educates through classes, events, and demonstrations throughout the year.

By participating in the community supported agriculture CSA, I was able to affordably share in their harvest, and feel good about doing my part to preserve our beautiful land and feed my family healthy, nutritious fruits and vegetables.  Each week I picked up my portion of freshly picked produce, assisted by the farm’s friendly, hardworking staff.  It was truly a pleasure to enjoy food of that quality, and exciting to introduce new ingredients to my kitchen, such as kale and chocolate mint.

My experience at Garden of Eve has always been what a day in the country should be; fresh air, friendly faces, natural beauty, good, wholesome food.  Whether you live on the North Fork, the city, or anywhere in between, make this one of your destinations as well; its one you can feel good about.
