A Fruitful Future for Earthbound Farm
Posted by TheBigPicture in Staff and Crew Stories on January 24th, 2012
Office foodies Alona, Kristen and Willow have long been educating the office on the importance of organic produce. After our October shoot at Earthbound Farm most of us at The Big Picture have jumped on the organic train too. We were so excited to find out our friends at Earthbound Farm have formally launched a fruit division. Now organic fruit will be easier to get our hands on and because Earthbound Farm is already a leader in organic salad, we have no doubt this new division will be just as fruitful!

It’s December 1st which by our standards, is practically Christmas.
