Take it from the Team

To reflect the changing seasons this April, we’ve switched out our must-haves this month. Here are a few things helping us take in all that spring has to offer.

Local Honey

Drizzle raw local honey on your yogurt and granola each morning, or make simple syrup (see p. 38). It’s not only delicious, but can also be vital this time of year to manage allergy symptoms. bradshawhoney

Bike Riding

Riding your bike to work, to the farmers market, or with your family helps keep you active while absorbing some natural vitamin D. Spring is the perfect time to enjoy the beautiful weather while the days grow longer. Be safe: wear your helmet and check nearby bike trails for the best routes.

Acrylic Glasses

These acrylic “glasses” are a great option to enjoy your drinks on the patio or poolside without fear of broken glass. Choose from many stylish shapes and designs available on the market today including wine or champagne glasses.

Aloe Plants

The succulent-like leaves of the aloe plant contain a clear gel full of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, salicylic acids, and amino acids. These compounds can provide relief and healing for sunburned or dry skin, psoriasis, and eczema. Plus, they’re really easy to grow!
