The secret to happiness may be at the end of your fork. People who experience SAD or are depressed tend to crave sugary, carbohydrate-rich foods, but overeating these foods have unhealthy consequences. Instead, stock up on these SAD-busting foods, which include, salmon, leafy greens, and whole grains to help brighten your days.

My campaign started in food, and in a lot of ways evolved out of food, she tells me, motioning toward the wooden counter that runs the length of the restaurant, the bottles of José Cuervo and Patron stacked on shelves strung with red fairy lights and South American flags. For 80 percent of this campaign, I operated out of a paper grocery bag hidden behind that bar. Between shifts at the restaurant, she’d reach into the bag for her political literature and a change of clot...hes, then set out to canvass. She leans across the table, her jean jacket buttoned all the way up, her large brown eyes intense, magnetic. For me it was especially potent that I was working in the food service industry while running for office because I wasn’t, like, reminiscing on some summer job I had when I was a teenager. This was the life I was living. For Ocasio-Cortez, food is political, and the most tangible indicator of our social inequities. Sure, as living beings we all must eat to surviveand there’s unity in thatbut what we eat and how much and where it comes from and what we must do to get it varies widely. The food industry is the nexus of almost all of the major forces in our politics today, she says. It’s super closely linked with climate change and ethics. It’s the nexus of minimum wage fights, of immigration law, of criminal justice reform, of health care debates, of education. You’d be hard-pressed to find a political issue that doesn’t have food implications. Most politicians, she points out, are disconnected from these realities. At the start of this Congress, the median net worth of members across both parties was five times that of an American household. Many members of Congress were born into wealth, or they grew up around it, Ocasio-Cortez says. How can you legislate a better life for working people if you’ve never been a working person? Try living with the anxiety of not having health insurance for three years when your tooth starts to hurt. It’s this existential dread. I have that perspective. I feel like I understand what’s happening electorally because I have experienced it myself.

Last day today, November 25th @KingsbridgeRiverdaleFarmersMarket, there is still time to grab produce before is all gone for the season, we will be wrapping up by 4PM! ! Thank you for supporting our local Farmers and Healthy Food Promoters! Make sure to stack up for Winter for optimum nutrition to beat cold season... Buy long lasting staples like squashes, pumpkins, potatoes, beets, carrots, cabbages, radishes, onions, garlic, hot peppers (can be refrigerated, dried or fr...ozen) as for the rest of the crops left from Fall, cut them up and freeze to cook as needed until you run out again. Check out local Winter Farmers' Markets, that use greenhouses to grow year around- to support local Farmers, combat carbon foot print and for potent jam packed nutrition... Let it be fresh, local and organic (no use of chemical pesticides)! Happy Holidays and we will see you again for Spring 2019, stay tuned for more farmers and vendors! We're grateful for the wonderful bounty grown by Mi Ranchito Farm - Victor Pavia and for special guest Ceremony Cerebellum and Break Bread Not Hearts connecting food sovereignty, ancestral knowledge to the sacred for healthy communities sake during our participation for the Bronx Community Green Fair 2018!

She made it her goal to start a farm for her neighbors, and to provide fresh food to refugees, immigrants and people affected by mass incarceration. She calls the lack of access to fresh food "food apartheid" because it's a human-created system of segregation.

Fall Harvest Kingsbridge-Riverdale Farmers Market featuring Mi Ranchito Farm - Victor Pavia, Break Bread Not Hearts, Ceremony Cerebellum! Last Day: November 25th, 9am-5pm!
