MIT Farm Stand



In early spring, MIT debuted its first fruit and vegetable stand!  In an effort to get students to eat more fresh foods, they have partnered with Russo's to make fresh fruits and vegetables more accessible to the MIT community.  My friend Anne, who is a vegetable and fruit enthusiast and keeps her own blog "So Many Veggies", met me there one chilly afternoon to peruse the bounty.  I love this photo of Anne with the Boston skyline in the background and the beautiful Florida oranges brightening up the winter scape.  We were amazed at how many students came to take advantage of this, and we both thought it was a sign that we city folk need more access to healthy produce.


Long lines at the MIT farm stand.
