Supporting the local economy, while at the same time buying healthy food for my family, is very important to me. I am lucky to live in an area that has a wonderful farmers market and a co-op, where I can purchase locally grown and created organic goods. One of the last papers I wrote at WSU (GO COUGS!) was on this very concept. If you can get past the quotations and citations (necessary for the assignment) it has very useful information for people wanting to learn more about farmers markets and how they benefit society.

Organic Stewed Cinnamon Apples
Harlow loves apples. She REALLY loves them.
And I have loved making her organic homemade applesauce and stewed apples for almost a year. In fact, with the help of my Beaba Babycook and The Baby and Toddler Cookbook, Harlow has never eaten baby food from a jar!
Organic Stewed Cinnamon Apples are one of our staple recipes that we make almost weekly. Start with any type of organic apples. We prefer Braeburn, but I couldn't resist these gorgeous Red Delicious apples from Washington (home sweet home) that I found at our local co-op.
Peel and cut four apples into bite sized pieces, and place in a saucepan.
Fill the saucepan with water, then sprinkle a generous amount of cinnamon over the apples and gently stir. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then turn the heat down to low and simmer until the apples are soft enough for your little one.
After the apples have cooled, serve and devour!
The apples can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator safely for 3-4 days.
