What’s the Story?

In GET FRESH WITH SARA SNOW, the titular natural-living expert explains how rethinking the foods we choose, recycling the products we use, and optimizing our energy efficiency can greatly improve our own well-being -- and that of the Earth. Snow visits with people and companies that are leading the way in the green living/sustainability movement. Guests show that a little ingenuity goes a long way, discussing everything from homes built of recycled materials and fueled almost solely by solar power to old clothing that's turned into brand-new items. One episode follows the lifecycle of a used yogurt cup that's remade into a disposable razor and later becomes the plastic lumber in a park bench. A stickler for freshness and firmly against food additives, Snow promotes organic products -- referring to the link between cancer and preservatives or dairy growth hormones -- and prepares simple meals that can benefit health.

Is It Any Good?

Snow and the experts she talks to lay out excellent cases for making small lifestyle changes that yield big benefits in overall well-being. They also stress how critical it is to reduce our resource consumption, showing the excessive waste that threatens to exhaust landfills and demonstrating how recycling can make a difference.

Get Fresh is great for families looking to take small steps toward a healthier life and better environment. But if your tweens are worriers, be careful -- some of the details about food and environmental health risks can be frightening.
