Go Natural

Everything is moving so quickly that we're not able to savor the everyday meaning and beauty of living on this planet. There's such indoctrination around fast, cheap and easy, but we know deeply that the things that are satisfying take time and concentration. We're trying to teach children that there are very important lessons learned around the dinner table: how to curb our greed and practice generosity through the sharing of food; how to communicate with and pay attention to one another at the table. We're learning what it is to be civilized and patient.

Do you have any food recommendations for people over 50?

It's important that we don't think there are special things you eat as a child or when you're older. Obviously, you eat less, but it separates people to have their food specially defined for their age. My whole focus is on getting people of all ages into a natural rhythm where eating is not disconnected from the rest of their lives. We have to find balance.
