Dear Brothers and Sisters,

For months people have been asking us about Calimyrna figs. Am delighted to say that just now, at the onset of winter, they have arrived. They represent the intentionality and hard work of family farmers and the wondrous fertile soil of the great Central Valley. We hope that they will brighten for you the drear of winter and serve as a symbols of what Americans can achieve.

We received so many requests from you for Alive Pecan Butter; we are delighted to bring it to you! Your suggestions are invaluable to us! Although the pecan originated here, nowadays most organic pecans come from Peru. Our pecans, however, are grown in Texas and with them we produce a most delicious pecan butter.

A few weeks ago we introduced our black sesame truffles and are delighted with your response. They are definitely on the leading edge; there is nothing comparable. There has been a lot of discussion about cacao powder in live food circles. We invite you to try ours. It is from Bali where it is crafted with care to assure its aliveness. Then there are our walnuts; they too are grown in the Central Valley by family farmers. They are also the new crop. Walnuts are a good source of omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids.

Imagine creating an alive pecan pie: -- the crust could be made from chopped almonds, walnuts, raisins and honey pressed into a pie plate. The filing would consist of our pecan butter and almond butter mixed with pureed raisins and chopped and pitted Medjool dates. Put it in the fridge to harden and set. The only problem is that it is exceedingly rich. But then we advocate vigorous exercise as an integral part of a live food diet!

New This Month

New Crop! Calimyrna Figs - At Last! Sun dried, Luscious and Evocative!

This is the fig you've been awaiting! Noted for its delicious, nut-like flavor. It is the smyrna fig from Turkey; long ago crowned best-tasting fig of all. It was brought to California in the 19th century, its name was changed to Calimyrna- a combination of California and Smyrna. Brighten your drear winter days with these magnificent fruits grown by family farmers.


New! Alive and Organic Pecan Butter

The pecan was the food of Native Americans for millenia. One of the most nutritious of nuts. Pecans are loaded with heart-healthy unsaturated fats and recently published studies show that pecan consumption can help lower cholesterol.

Created in Berkeley, California, a wellspring of the human spirit. Over 21 Nobel Prize winners have taught here.

 


New! Black Sesame Chocolate Halvah Truffles-Alive and Organic!

Most raw chocolates out there use sugar in one form or another.Instead of sugar we use honey. Alive honey has powerful antibacterial properties and is even effective against antibiotic resistant bacteria. It is a complex substance containing over 800 compounds, little understood by conventional science.

We handcraft our alive chocolate truffles in Berkeley, California. It is a wellspring of the human spirit. It has a rich tradition of Americans who have dared to stand up and speak their truth. It is a center of original and creative thinking, over 21 Nobel Prize winners have taught here.


New! Alive, Dark Cacao Powder from Bali - Organic!

We are delighted to bring you this alive cacao powder from Bali. Cacao is the seed of an Amazonian tree which grows throughout Central and South America. Cacao beans are the source for all Chocolate and Cocoa products.


New Crop! Organic California Walnuts

We are delighted to bring you the new crop of walnuts grown in the wondrous fertile, alluvial soil of California's great Central Valley. They are grown there by family farmers. California walnuts are simply the best!
