Spring is the time to cleanse and detox the body. It’s no accident that fresh, young herbal greens arrive in spring, just when we need their healing nutrients most. As owners and shoppers of the co-op, we have access to some of the highest quality ingredients, especially when it comes to wildcrafted produce. However, foraging is also a great way to get some exercise and enjoy Minnesota’s natural beauty. Spring is a season of emergence and rebirth, so it is the perfect time to make a positive change for better health.
