MaMa Says Eat the Rainbow

From bright yellow turmeric to the dark earthy purple of beets, food is full of color. Full, bright vibrant color.  That’s what food should be. The dark leafy greens of kale and the beautiful oranges and pale pinks of sweet potatoes have a story to tell. Eating the rainbow is a simple way of reminding us to consume a variety of fruits and vegetables to get the vitamins and minerals your body needs.

Local or Organic. That's It.

Local or Organic. That’s it! This is our guarantee to you. No need to search for quality when shopping for your fruits and vegetables. MaMa Jean’s makes it easy by only sourcing produce that is locally grown or certified organic. Our local farmers practice organic techniques, so our local produce has the same standards as our organic produce. Conventional produce, which is what you find in most grocery stores, is often times sprayed with harmful chemicals to repel insects and to prevent weeds.
