Just ran across this article about how promoting walking and biking in Somerville has helped kids and adults alike get more fit in the last several years. I was a proud Somervillain for almost 8 years, and still work there every week, so this makes me happy.
The article also talks about fresh and local produce being more accessible to kids in school and to residents through farm shares.
It reminds me of this article earlier in the week, about a doctor who eats only organical food for 3 years. He’s coming out with a new book on “green” living during pregnancy. Should be interesting!
