Wild blueberries have a higher rate of genetic diversity than their cultivated 2nd cousins twice removed.

Why does this matter?
Because that is what makes wild blueberries better for you!

Why?
Because they have a higher antioxidant content (double that of cultivated blueberries).

Why?
Because their smaller size gives them a higher skin-to-pulp ratio, containing more fiber, iron and a higher concentration of bioactive compounds including anthocyanins (remember that word).

Unlike cultivated blueberries which are the result of generations of selective breeding and farming practices designed to make them easier to harvest, as well as bigger and juicier, wild blueberries grow 100% on their own (wild), not planted, or tampered with in any way. This means they have NO genetic engineering, they are exactly what nature originally created.

What does this mean for you?
It means BLUEBERRIES are very good for you, but WILD BLUEBERRIES are even better!

do you know the difference between wild blueberries and cultivated? Did you know that blueberries are one of the only foods naturally blue in colour? Did you know that wild blueberries have been …

hey friends, I just learned that Wise Harvest is having a great Sale through the end of January! Save 30% on certain items that are currently overstock. See the list below.

I have already tried everything in the smaller size, so I know exactly what to expect now, and I'm ready to buy the bigger sizes (8 ounces) which are very comparable to the Thrive Life bigger cans.
Wise Harvest freeze dried foods are packaged in mylar bags - not cans, so they're not the 25+ year shelf life I am used to. The bags are 5-8 years shelf life - which is still pretty good.
I'm hoping that eventually Wise Harvest will offer cans, but in the meantime, 5-8 years is still the longest time available for fruits and vegetables of this quality. I'll go for it.

Here are the details on the items included in the 30% off promotion:
8oz Pouches:
Freeze Dried Pineapple
Freeze Dried Mango
Freeze Dried Banana Slices
Freeze Dried Fuji Apple Slices
Freeze Dried Dragon Fruit
Freeze Dried Strawberries
Freeze Dried Raspberries
Freeze Dried Wild Blueberries
1oz Pouches:
Freeze Dried Coconut
Freeze Dried Dragon Fruit
Freeze Dried Lemon Slices
Freeze Dried Figs
Freeze Dried Sugar Snap Peas
Freeze Dried Seasoned Corn
Freeze Dried Broccoli
Freeze Dried Cauliflower

As a special gift for ordering with me, you'll save an additional 5% after everything has already been discounted by typing CINDY15 in the coupon area. (you're welcome lol)

Bonus 1: when you spend $100 you get FREE shipping! EVEN INTO CANADA
Bonus 2: if you login as a Canadian customer, the prices will be listed in Canadian dollars, so you'll know what is what!

Who gives a fig about figs?

Well, for most of my life I didn't. I never even saw a real fig till I had kids, but fig newtons were my dad's favourite cookie when I was growing up so we've shared a long history of sorts. These chewy fruity cookies have been popular with children and adults in North America long before my dad was born. Who knew? And who knew they were so easy to make at home? Figs have always been synonymous with the Mediterranean for me, just a little out of reach but the world has become a smaller place over the years, and probably most of us are familiar with how they taste (even if it's only from the cookies).

Recently freeze dried figs came into my life, so my interest has been peaked, and I was curious about whether I even wanted to be interested in them. Spoiler alert: I found I am most definitely interested -

Freeze dried figs are the closest to the taste and nutrition of fresh figs. Next best thing to eating them freshly picked from your own backyard fig tree.

Well sometimes life takes you down a different path when you least expect it. For nearly 15 years I have used and promoted Thrive Life freeze dried foods. I have become totally converted to the high quality of them as a nourishing food for my family, and I loved the extended shelf life that fits perfectly with my priorities. I also got pretty used to the convenience. But recently Thrive Life took on some investors who, as it turns out, didn't share the same passion for the mission of the company. Investors are usually only interested in the money, and they decided to transition over to selling only to big corporations, dissolving their long standing relationship with individual households.

That was a shocker! And within less than 6 weeks the brand had completely disappeared except on the shelves of the tens of thousands of people who purchased during the liquidation.

For those same tens of thousands of people, there was an unexpected void, so began an earnest search to find the company to replace the one we were loyal to. Difficult shoes to fill. But when you've got lots of people searching and cooperatively sharing (yes, we'd become that closely knit) - that's a lot of resources, and we found what we were searching for.

It wasn't a surprise that though this company was up for the scrutiny, they had some tweaking to do. For the last 13 years they've been selling to businesses, but they're anxious to expand into the direct sale market.

I invested many hours learning about them as a company - and I'M IMPRESSED on every level. I sent for some samples to check out their food - the big test. It arrived yesterday. I am looking forward to tasting it. Stay tuned, I'll let you know what I honestly think about it, and IF it measures up to the quality I've become accustomed to.
