Melon Patch Kids
Whether you`re watching your diet or just considering all the pesticides and hormones you may be ingesting, many people don`t take into consideration what is going into their bodies. A lot of foods from the supermarket have traveled hundreds of miles from other states or even other countries to get to the grocery store. You may never see the land that your apple came from. You may never ask: "what pesticides were used on this cantaloupe to prevent damage?" but maybe you should. How fresh can "fresh fruit" be if it is a product of Chile? There are ways to get truly fresh fruit locally and feel comfortable about what your family is eating.
Melon Patch Kids is a company that specializes in such produce. Located on the west end of town, Melon Patch Kids uses sustainable methods to grow their produce. When you stop by their stand at 4326 Neibauer Road, you can feel confident that what you are eating did not ripen on a truck somewhere between Florida and Montana%3B it was picked ripe right off the vine. Don`t worry about the carbon emissions a large truck releases when hauling produce, it was grown right here in town! You can be assured the produce at Melon Patch Kids is chemical free and only travels from the garden to the table. Now that is fresh produce & pure goodness!
