Up Until last summer, MOTHER Eco-Village wasn't equipped with a facility suitable for food preparation. In seasons past, we hired outside caterers to provide our visitors with quality meals and snacks. Some of these services) worked out well Others did not. Seeking a more reliable and permanent solution (one in keeping with MOM's philosophy) to our culinary quandary we decided that if you want to do something right, you just have to do it yourself. The outcome: Last year MOTHER's own restaurant opened at the Eco-Village ... to rave reviews, we're pleased to say from visitors and staff alike.

We cooks at MOM's eatery not only provided folks with delicious vegetarian (and semi veterinarian) dishes but also taught show-how's on natural-food- related topics., We frequently became pupils, too, benefiting from the vast pool of experiences and suggestions so generously shared by our guests, The exchange of recipes and ideas between staff and visitors—not to mention the resulting tasty dishes—enriched us all.

For instance, two of the young visitors who left us with some very fond memories were Ben Stuki and Casey Fenyo. Ben, who hails from Mauk, Georgia, was a bright and competent kitchen helper. Casey was quite good at prepping vegetables (it's amazing how hard some one will work in exchange for a few carob brownies), but could disappear without a trace at the mention of dishwashing.

For those readers who didn't get a chance to visit us this past year (or for those of you who did stop by but forgot to write down the formulas for your favorite dishes), here are a few of our most requested recipes. Of course, we hope you'll come see us in person this season at the Eco-Village Restaurant and sample our delicacies firsthand. In the meantime, perhaps this popularly acclaimed menu will tide you over. Here's to good eating!
