Read MorePower in the plant, wheys and means
Plant-based diets are increasingly becoming “the choice” for those who want to live long and enjoy quality of life.

Read MoreSwap it out with Kombucha!
It’s got to be the “drink du jour” because it flies out of GreenAcres daily. What’s so good about kombuca? We’re asking you! It’s fizzy, fermented and tangy—in fact a tad too tangy for some.

Read MoreGreenAcres is going Wagyu!

According to data from market research firm IRI, Jack…

With all the diet or eating regimens out there, it was only a matter of time before serious foodies started proselytizing about which diet regimen works best for them. And that touting has come to bear on the restaurant community as well as health food and grocery store ordering and stocking in a big way.…
Read MoreCracked, chapped lips? Home remedies might work best!
There’s a great article in Shefinds.com that talks about a dilemma we see often at GreenAcres Market: Lips that never quite repair even though customers swear they are putting chapstick on every hour. The article talks about a single ingredient that may be impeding healing, and that ingredient is petrolatum. “Depending on how the company…
