The Products Are: Katchkie Ketchup®, Thunder Pickles From Katchkie Farm®™, Pickled Beets, Pesto, Bob-b-q Sauce™, Sweet Vellies, And Katchkie Farm Spice Packets. At The Heart Of Each Product Is Organic Produce From The Farm. When Possible, Other Ingredients Are Sourced Locally, Like The Sprout Farm Toussaint Cheese In The Pesto And Philly Heffernan's Jalapeño Peppers In The Katchkie Ketchup®. A Portion Of Our Profits Goes To Support The Programs Of The Sylvia Center.
The Sylvia Center At Katchkie Farm:
The Sylvia Center Creates Food Adventures To Last A Lifetime - Hands-on Experiences That Promote The Pleasures Of Healthy, Seasonal Eating. At Our Beautiful Organic Farm In New York's Hudson Valley, Children Get A Rich Experience Of Country Life. They Explore The Vegetable Beds And Greenhouse; They Plant And Harvest. They Delight In Meeting Our Chickens–they Can Climb Right Into The Coop With Them! Kids Prepare A Farm-fresh Meal Themselves In Our Open-air Kitchen.
Sylvia Center Curriculum Is Strongly Focused On Nutrition And Wellness. As Home-cooked Meals Disappear From Dinner Tables, America's Children Face A Health Crisis. Juvenile Obesity Is Epidemic; And Type 2 Diabetes, Previously Unheard Of In Children, Is At A Record High. Our Programs Address This Crisis By Encouraging Simple But Delicious Preparations Of Wholesome Food--recipes That Children Can Take Home And Make With Their Families.
Sylvia Center Curriculum Has A Significant Connection To New York City And New York State Performance Standards For Health And Physical Education, Science, Social Studies, And Language Arts. It Can Be Used To Meet Requirements In These Areas.
