I remember as if it was yesterday. I was on the verge of spiraling down to an emotional depressive mess. I was so scared but I cannot falter. Especially not while my mother was in the operating room and my father was equally agitated. I was so scared but I had to be the opposite of it. Dark as it may seem, we got through that moment. In dealing with the aftermath, we committed to a lifestyle change. Yes, we. We are all in this together.
There are some commitment that calls for a different kind of devotion. We often ask what more could we do, how else could we make things better. It is not always easy, but we always do our best.
Alongside ditching bad habits and upping physical activities to healthier degree, we revamped our food choices. We've gone organic. Not to a hundred percent yet, but as I have mentioned, we are doing our best.
With the piece of land we have, we planted few things that we often consume. Sometimes, we source from the market or other organic farmers in our area that we know. Then I was introduced to Organic Veggie Mommies.
Organic Veggies Mommies is an online marketplace that specializes in selling and delivering organic vegetables, fruits, rice, and herbs among many others. It aims to provide safe and fresh organic food to promote improved health among families while protecting the environment.
I will not bore you to your wits end with my own retelling of how Organic Veggie Mommies came to be, because they did a great job telling that story on their website - of which I highly encourage you to visit.

What I would like to point out here however, is the fact that Organic Veggie Mommies only sells certified organic products. The owner Ms. Doris Golangco is very keen when it comes to partnering with organic farmers - they have to be certified by organic farming governing body here in the country, to ensure the quality of the produce they are selling to their customers. Now that's what you call commitment to high quality farm to table goodness.
Moreover, it is worthy to note that by patronizing Organic Veggie Mommies' produce, we are in way helping the farmers to sustain their livelihood. Add to that the fact that organic farming is not hazardous to environment. Really, it's a win-win situation.
As it is primarily an online marketplace for organic veggies and fruits, customers may place their orders online then opt to have it delivered right to their doorsteps. Aside from that, customers may also opt to pick up their items at Organic Veggie Mommies partner merchants with physical stores namely Annabelle's (Pinaglabanan St., San Juan) and Alex & Claude (G/F F1 Hotel 32nd St., BGC).
Days ago I received my veggies from Organic Veggie Mommies and even my parents were impressed by the quality of everything we've got. We enjoyed the produce immensely and I have whipped up several recipes using most of the selections we got. Needless to say, we are not stopping here.
In the coming days, I will be posting several healthy recipes using the organic veggies I got from Organic Veggie Mommies. Mostly plant-based because that is how I roll these days. I am so excited because trust me, nothing beats eating something you know is good for you.
Meanwhile, I encourage you to give Organic Veggie Mommies a try for your organic produce needs.
