Healthy Child:

BabyCenter.com, Healthy Child Healthy World, and Stonyfield Farm have created a new online community for moms to connect, share stories, ask questions and engage with a panel of experts to learn more about the growing trend of eating organic. The Easy Organic Living site on BabyCenter, the #1 trafficked website for new moms, will offer a discussion board, videos, articles, organic challenges and Q&A sessions with experts.

Expert guests will engage with moms and dads on the site to answer some of the most common questions about organics including the health and environmental benefits, as well as easy and low-cost ways to incorporate organics into their homes.

Experts will include:

  • America’s Pediatrician Dr. Bill Sears will lend his expertise in getting children off to a healthy start.
  • Healthy eating expert and author Robyn O’Brien will talk about ways to avoid synthetic chemicals and genetically modified foods in your family’s diet.
  • Catherine McCord chef and founder of the popular blog, Weelicious, will offer cooking tips and recipes for healthy, family-friendly meals.
  • Valerie Deneen of the Frugal Family Fun blog will provide pointers for eating healthy on a budget and finding low-cost organics.
  • The site will also feature Q&A with organic farmers about the steps they take to produce healthy food and the steps they take to ensure food is certified organic.

We’ll also be doing some fun and easy challenges together!

  • A simple label-reading challenge to encourage parents to understand what they’re eating.
  • A meal preparation challenge encouraging parents to use at least one organic ingredient.
  • A money-saving challenge to help parents make organic living affordable.
  • A snack invention challenge to inspire parents to think outside the wrapper and create their own healthy snack using at least one organic ingredient.

Join the group today! Share your experiences, ask experts questions, and connect with other moms trying to eat healthy and provide the best foods for their families.
