Power Berry Smoothies

Get your day going with a delightful fruit smoothie anchored by our powerfully nutritious greens: Power, Kale or Baby Spinach!

Wholesome organic frozen fruit and fruit juice impart a gently sweet flavor, and they provide the perfect cover for adding healthy veggies to your diet — even if you don’t particularly like to eat your greens straight up.

These smoothies make a terrific on-the-go breakfast or refreshing midday snack. The variations emphasize different fruit flavors, but you should experiment to suit your own tastes. Each recipe makes one 12-ounce smoothie. Enjoy!

Janna Jo’s Fancy Herb Water

Janna Jo Williams is the dedicated green thumb in charge of the gardens at our Farm Stand in Carmel Valley, California. She developed this delightful flavored water with the bountiful herbs she grows in our Cut-Your-Own Organic Herb Garden there.

“As perfect and refreshing for a party as for home, this Fancy Herb Water is a delicious and fragrant way to quench your thirst,” she says…and lots of Farm Stand event attendees agree!

“I choose all of my favorites from our organic herb garden here at the Farm Stand: in the video my infused water has lemon verbena, chamomile, lemon balm, bee balm, Moroccan mint, borage, lavender and a rosebud for both flavor and a pretty accent. You can use whatever fresh herbs you have in your garden or that you purchase — ones that you might use in your favorite hot tea would work beautifully in this cold brew.”

Always be sure to use only organic herbs and flowers so you don’t inadvertently add chemicals or pesticides to your water. This recipe makes about 16 8-ounce servings of infused water.

And the ingredient combinations are limited only by your taste and imagination, so feel free to experiment with your favorites. Enjoy!
