Bluemont Fair

Today I went to the Bluemont Fair in Virgina to celebrate my mother's birthday. There are a variety of vendors ranging from antique furniture, hand crafted soap, and hand-made jewelery. Ofcourse Andrey had to try the "fried oreos" which I have to admit were pretty amazing. It taste 200X better than a non-fried oreo. When ever I come across a food vendor or restaurant I kind of get enthralled with the ambiance or the quality of the food. This ofcourse happened to me at a vendor by the name of "Mountain Momma Organics" owned by Keith and Kim Finger. The vegetarian couple owns a 100 acre farm in MacFarlan, WV but originally are from the Pennsylvania area! Pennsylvania is a pretty health conscious state so I'm not so surprised that this couple who have only been in the organic food industry less than a year were from there. Mountain Momma Organics are famous for their soups ranging from bean soups, lentil soups, split-pea and each with a different flavoring including curry!!! The couple buys majority of their organic products from California other than their fresh produce which they farm on their land. Keith also let us sample Kim's chocolate "guiness" cacao spread, in which I believe is sold online. I ended up buying the curried lentil soup, organic peanut butter, almond butter, and a orgainc granola bar. If you're constantly looking for whole good foods to feed yourself and family this is a great find that I recommend to everyone. All of their soups can be ordered online as well! I hope this company takes off in a big way and I support their mission to feed people more whole and natural foods. www.mountainmommaorganics.com for more information!
