The whole thing is put together so beautifully! This is our pick of the…

Strawberry Picking Season is coming up!

April marks the beginning of strawberry picking season! Sometimes we forget that this delicious fruit only grows naturally during a few months each year because magically strawberries are available to us in our local grocery stores pretty much year round. However, here at The Little Seed we are super interested in where our food comes from and when it comes for that matter. We advocate supporting our local farms and farmers because its great… Continue

Join us in a healthy debate about Zoos.

We are always trying to do what's best for our environment, and those we share it with, but is it right for us to keep our furry, feathered (and sometimes slimy or scaly) friends from roaming around in their natural habitat? Some might argue that we are… Continue

Teaching our children about giving back.

With the recent devastation in Haiti, we are constantly surrounded by images and reminders to give back to those that are less fortunate or who are in need. This message is sometimes diluted by the time it reaches our kids and since as parents, we try to shelter our little ones from such devastating sights, it is at this time that we can use this incident as a reminder to teach our children the importance of charity and giving… Continue
