Dear Children: Not all food comes from the grocery stores.
I think it's wonderful when kids learn where real food comes from; that is, when they engage in projects of picking and home-processing produce. I therefore enjoyed seeing the facebook blog from my niece, Michelle Chung, where her children visited an orchard, picked apples and made applesauce at home. And when I read the following excerpt from Michelle's post, I know the lessons learned here will be life-long and invaluable to this child:

Thanks for the post.
