(3BLMedia/theCSRfeed) Madison, Wisconsin - July 16, 2010 - Leonardo Academy has launched a fundraising campaign to support the continued development of the American National Standard for Sustainable Agriculture. The goal of the standard is to provide guidance for continuous improvement in sustainable agriculture practices, as well as a basis for clear communication between buyers and sellers on the sustainability profile of agricultural products. The initial phase of the standard development process focuses on the production of agricultural goods within the farm gate.

Strawberries are with us for so short a time, I try to build recipes around them as much as I can. This weekend is going to be a big strawberry weekend at the market for me, I can just feel it.
And Strawberry Granita is SUCH an easy and delicious Italian iced desert. Chilly and sweet on a humid summer day. I think you crop mob kids should consider making some after a hot day's work!

I recommend liver (organic or naturally raised, of course) for my clients, and I include liver recipes in my online meal planning service, Dinner with Jennette.

This sweet and spicy chicken can be marinated up to a day in advance. Note: If you’re making it in advance and you use coconut oil, it will harden in the refrigerator, but that’s fine. You can omit the cayenne if you don’t like things hot or add more if you do!
