Taking a Look Back
5/19/2023
Remembering some of our favorite past episodes
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran get nostalgic! The boys take a look back at some of their favorite past episodes about a popular topic; food!
Bread and oil
First we recall our time trying recipes of various breads of the world. The french toast we made with the challah bread was a standout!
https://gogreenfields.com/breads_of_the_world_pan_de_barra/
Along with the bread we remembered that we also made some different fresh-pressed olive oils with our friend T.J. Robinson; and used sourdough bread to taste them. Delicious!

Gradma Annie and the Iron Chef
Next we looked back on talking to our Grandma Annie. Her cinnamon rolls are the best you can find, even the next day!
https://gogreenfields.com/making-cinnamon-rolls-with-grandma-annie/
We also remembered our Iron Chef competition; no matter the winner or loser, it was fun to challenge ourselves and put our creations in the hands of the judges!

State foods
Next up, was the fun we had in a series of episodes exploring different unique foods-by-state. Different states tend to have different specialties, but a few things really stood out. Foremost on our minds were the cotton candy burrito, ice cream potato, python stir-fry, and scorpion lollipops!
https://gogreenfields.com/foods_by_state_1/
Our top picks
So many fun episodes and experiences to look back on, but we did settle on a couple of favorites. The first was making hand-tossed pizzas. We tossed and rolled the dough, and added our toppings including pineapple; a controversial move!

Next up was our fondue party episode. We had a great time enjoying a chocolate fondue fountain with friends!

We really enjoyed taking a look back on some of our favorite moments and episodes, and we look forward to more to come! Tell us what your favorite past episodes are and don’t forget to let us know your position on pineapple on pizza!

I CHALLENGE YOU– Caramel Candies and Cheese Souffle
5/4/2023
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran get competitive… AGAIN! Terran has challenged River to make caramel candies. Caramel is a notoriously tricky recipe because of the attention that it requires to avoid burning. River has challenged Terran to construct a cheese souffle dish - a complicated recipe and difficult to execute perfectly!
Caramel Candies
River makes this phenomenal treat from scratch! There are initial troubles with the consistency of the caramel liquid while he is stirring it within the pan. A candy thermometer is essential in this step so that the candy doesn’t burn! Believe it or not, if River changes the candy liquid temperature slightly, then it could result in a caramel syrup rather than a candy. SCIENCE!
Cheese Souffle
Terran creates the tastiest, savory batch of cheese souffle that we have ever tasted. He delicately shreds parmesan cheese as he layers it into each one of the ramekins. This created a bit of texture in an otherwise fluffy & savory treat. We highly recommend this challenge for anyone who is trying to step up their cooking game!

Things Are Getting Egg-Y
3/30/2023
Egg Roulette & Blown Egg Ornaments
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran get messy! Things are getting egg-y in the Greenfield household, and while some of this footage was actually shot during a different holiday, it just feels right to bring out the eggs in time for Easter. Check out this info on egg roulette and blown egg ornaments, and then watch and laugh with us!
Blown Egg Ornaments
There is some disagreement about the blown egg ornament tradition, and the Greenfield Twins are taking sides. Some believe that it was started as a pre-Easter tradition, which involved kids and parents blowing and drying eggs before spending time together painting and creating beautiful, spring-inspired showpieces. Others argue that it was a German Christmas tradition. So, we are showing this episode pre-Easter, but River and Terran hung their eggs on their Christmas tree.
There is actual evidence that this is among the oldest known crafts, with the discovery of etched eggshells dating back more than 60,000 years according to Scientific American!
The History of Egg Roulette
It’s a short, but hilarious history for this piece of the egg-y episode. We’ve seen this trend take over the internet in the recent past, and the twins just had to test their luck - with varying success.
Want to try it for yourself? Hard boil 4 eggs and cool completely, leaving the shells intact. Add the hard boiled eggs to eight uncooked eggs in a traditional egg carton. Shuffle the 12 eggs until everyone is unsure where the hardboiled eggs are positioned. Take turns cracking eggs on your head. The loser is the biggest mess at the end of the competition, but he wins the longest shower!

Party Planning: Indoor Camping Party
2/23/2023
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran are party planning, but it’s not really warm enough to host an outdoor party, so why not bring the outdoors in? They planned a camping party that could be enjoyed by teenage guys who are craving the adventures of the outdoors, but don’t really want to venture out in the cold Washington temperatures. This would also be a great idea for kids’ birthday parties too!
Indoor Camping Party Step #1: Campfire S’mores
River and Terran started the planning by figuring out how they could achieve the ultimate camping snack inside. While some people will make their smores in the microwave, the results are not the same. So, the co-hosts started a fire in their indoor fireplace and roasted some marshmallows at the fireside.
After shooting, they discovered these awesome smokeless Tabletop campfires that could achieve the same results and be set up in the middle of a circle of tents or forts, so friends wouldn’t be required to change location in order to roast marshmallows.
Indoor Camping Party Step #2: Invitations
The second step was to design the party invitations. A camping theme, of course, but River and Terran like to create their own invitations instead of buying from the store. This is a great craft for kids and teens of all ages, and a great way to save a little money in the party planning process. You can pick up thirty blank cards with envelopes for about six bucks on Amazon.
Indoor Camping Party Step #3: Balloons
River and Terran opted for solid green balloons that suited their personality, matched the theme, and worked better for the intended age range of the guests. However, for kids, they highly recommended these great camping-themed balloons.
You could blow up the balloons ahead of time, or make it part of the experience. The co-hosts had a bit of fun with the balloons, competing to see who could blow up the balloons fastest, who could get the biggest balloon without popping it, and playing keep away while carrying balloons in their mouth.
Indoor Camping Party Step #4: Tent Space
When River and Terran were shooting this episode, they were still trying to figure out how to layout and decorate the space. They built forts and started to decorate the space, but decided that they needed to do a bit more research. Ultimately, they found these Small Tents for Indoor Camping Experience on Amazon that would fit in the space. Each tent accommodated two people in sleeping bags. They invited friends to bring their own sleeping bags and pillows. Ladders were brought in and the rest of the streamers were hung. The tents were set up in a circle so the guys could visit long into the night.
Indoor Camping Party Step #5: Camp Games
The last thing that was planned were the games that would be played. Cards and board games were available as well, but River and Terran found that they could set up their cornhole boards in the hallway for a real camping game experience. They bought the boards and refinished them with their own artwork. If you want to design your own cornhole boards, you can buy these unfinished cornhole boards (with bags and carrying case). Be sure to put a couple coats of white paint down first so your artwork really pops.
This party was a big hit, but we definitely want to hear your ideas! So, send them our way:

Shiso Beautiful, My Valentine
2/10/2023
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran pick gorgeous Shiso leaves from their LettuceGrow garden. The fantastic indoor growing system allowed the co-hosts to grow a large amount of shiso just for this episode.
About Shiso
Shiso, which is also called “perilla leaf” or “Japanese basil” is native to Japan. It is a relative of the mint plant commonly grown in many American gardens. Like mint, Shiso is considered to have medicinal value. It has antibacterial properties, which led to it becoming a favorite tool of Sushi chefs in its homeland. The Shiso leaves can actually preserve food by preventing spoilage, so it is often wrapped around the raw fish used in sushi. It is also, obviously, edible, and is said to pair well with Salmon, Tuna, and Yellowtail fish. But, it is also making an appearance in beverages, jellies, and desserts.
Terran’s Shiso Recipe: Shiso Gelee Topping
Ingredients
6 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon gelatin
2 tablespoons salted shiso dried
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Directions
Put the water in a small saucepan, sprinkle it with gelatin and allow it to hydrate for one to two minutes.
Add the shiso, place over medium heat, and bring to a slow boil.
Lower temperature, add sugar and lemon juice.
Pass the mixture through a tea strainer into a glass or ceramic dish or ramekin.
Cool in the fridge until set.
Cut with cookie cutters or knife and serve.
River’s Shiso Recipe: Valentines Day Shiso Soda
Ingredients
125 grams Shiso leaves
1 cup water
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Directions
Rinse Shiso
De-stem Shiso
Add water to medium sauce pan and bring to slow boil
Add shiso leaves and allow to steep (2-4 minutes)
Strain and press into glass bowl
Pour juice into smaller sauce pan, add sugar
After sugar dissolves, add vinegar.
Allow syrup to cool, then pour over soda water and enjoy

Thanksgiving Food Sculpture: A Holiday-Inspired Crazy Food Plating Episode
11/17/2022
In this episode of GoGreenfields, the game of food sculpture is simple - prepare a plate of food like any plate anyone has ever seen. Shape it, stack it, sculpt it… whatever you do, be sure that you have created something that smells, tastes, and LOOKS amazing! River and Terran were certainly up to the challenge.
Food Sculpture - Terran’s Approach
Did you know that food has been used as art for over one thousand years. Many people credit Filippo Tommaso Marinetti as the first food artist. His cookbook was (is) really much more than a cookbook, which is obvious pretty quickly when you find recipes such as “ice cream on the moon”. Terran made it a goal to fool the taste tester with his food sculpture. You might do a double take when you realize that the “turkey” set before you is much more than a roast bird.
Food Sculpture - River’s Approach
Over the years, food has found its way into art in many different forms. There have been restaurants devoted to food art, served food sculptures at parties and galleries, displayed giant butter sculptures at fairs, and even disguised food in highly realistic showpieces. River was channeling that inspiration as he plated his “corn”. Be prepared, this corn will hit your sweet spot in a way the field grown variety can’t.
Corn on the Cob Sculpture
Ingredients
1 stick butter, softened1/2 c. granulated stevia1 tsp. vanilla1 c. almond flourDashkosher salt2 bags candy corn Directions
Beat butter and sugar together, Add vanilla Add almond flour and salt and beat until fully combined. Create four logs from the dough, wrap and refrigerate for two hours. Pull dough logs from the fridge and push candy corn into it, forming neat rows. Refrigerate at least 1 hourServe and enjoy! Thanksgiving Roll Trick-and-Treat

Over medium heat, sauté chopped onion until it becomes slightly translucentAdd crushed garlic and sauté for an additional two minutes.Add ground beef, salt, pepper, thyme, cumin and pine nuts, and continue to cook for 3-5 minutes, until meat is thoroughly cooked. Allow to cool. Directions - Assembling and Sculpting
Divide ⅔ of the dough into 10 equal pieces and shape each piece into ball Roll the balls into four inch circles Place a small dollop of filling in the center of eachPinch the dough closed and round into a ballRemove small pieces from the remaining dough to be shaped into turkey legsDampening dough where connecting the turkey leg. Gently pinch the pieces together, so the “legs” are securely attachedRepeat for each rollPlace all the “turkeys” in a baking try, cover and let rest 20 minutesPreheat the oven to 355FBrush the “turkeys” with egg washBake 20 minutesServe, laugh, and enjoy!

Boba & Bounce: A Review of Spokane’s Poke Express Boba Tea, DIY Bouncy Ball Craft, and Homemade Boba Tea
11/3/2022
In this episode of GoGreenfields, Boba and bounce! Don’t leave! River & Terran have combined three ball-shaped activities to keep you fully entertained. First, they create their very own DIY bouncy balls, complete with bounce testing. Then, they review the popular boba tea from Spokane’s Poke Express. Finally, they take their own approach to tea and pearls with Homemade Boba Tea!
Boba Tea: Did you Know?
Although the tweens and teens (like us!) are claiming this tea as something of our own generation, it was really something that some of our parents could have enjoyed. Of course, they wouldn’t have had the huge selection of boba sellers that we have today (there are five in Spokane, that we know of). Still, this tea was something that was created in the 1980s, and a trip to East Asia at the time likely would have resulted in taste testing the tapioca pearls. Although we approve of boba tea as it is today, there were some varieties - like those containing red beans and grass jelly - that we believe weren’t meant to survive.
Bouncy Balls
Why make bouncy balls? It felt like the perfect thing to pair with boba tea. Don’t you agree. DIY bouncy balls are an easy, and satisfying craft that you can make at home with very few ingredients - Borax soap, white glue, water, and cornstarch! Here’s a recipe.
Homemade Boba Tea
Ingredients
4T tap water1 cup of muscovado sugar (which is light brown sugar) Boba pearls (we made our own, but you can get somehere)black tea1 and ½ cup of oat milk ice Directions
Combine water and brown sugarPlace over low heat and add boba pearlsUse the brown sugar syrup mixture to line the glass and fill the bottomAdd a few ice cubes, gentlyPour tea and milk over iceEnjoy!

Homemade Pizza Tossing
10/20/2022
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran show off their pizza tossing skills while making homemade pizzas. Pizza Tossing: Did you Know? Although many think that it is just the visual appeal of watching pizza tossing prior to biting into that perfect sauce covered creation, there is a skill to and reason for the act. Over time, a pizza maker can perfect the art of pizza throwing, which results in consistency of shape and texture. Pizza tossing uses centrifugal and gravitational forces to create a thinner, circular dough. It also helps form the crust of the pizza, as the middle of the thrown pizza will naturally be thinner than the outer edges. You can overthrow or underthrow a pizza. You can also drop it – A LOT! No one perfects the act the first time. It is a learned skill that comes with a lot of practice. We, of course, show that we are masters in this episode (HA!) Best Toppings for Pizza Tossing– This is where the debate begins. “Pineapple. Need I say anymore?” – River

Mocktails & Music: Making Healthy, Kid-friendly Mocktails (Non-Alcoholic Cocktails) and a little Music on Wine Glasses
10/6/2022
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran concoct and create in the kitchen, aiming for some mouthwatering mocktails. They also try their hands at making music with wine glasses.
Wine Glass Music: Did you Know?
Fall is here and that means that we’re coming to that part of the year when families gather and big dinners are served. That also means that there will likely be wine glasses on the table. These also double as musical instruments. In the 18th century, a musical instrument made of glasses was introduced. It allowed the musician to create songs simply by rubbing a finger gently along the rim of the glasses. You can do the same thing with the wine glasses on the Thanksgiving table. The friction caused by your wet finger sliding along the rim causes the sides of the glass to quiver just enough to cause a vibration to be transmitted to the air. That results in a sound much like a musical note. The amount of water in the glass determines the degree of vibration and therefore impacts the pitch of the note.
Music-Worthy Mocktails
When they aren’t exploding in our faces, mocktails are pretty magnificent. Whether you’re serving them to friends or just enjoying them on your own, you can create some pretty fantastic (and some not-so-tasty) concoctions by combining your favorite liquids and spices. For this episode, River made a Moscow Mule Mocktail, while Terran got super creative and made what we are calling a Sweet & Spiced Pineapple Mocktini.
Moscow Mule Mocktail
Ingredients
3 second squirt of lime juice1 TBS agave syrup1/4 cup club soda3-4 mint leaves (torn, optional)3/4 cup Ginger Beer (make sure it’s non alcoholic)crushed ice Directions
In the bottom of the cup squirt lime juice, then add agave syrup and club soda. Add 2-4 mint leaves and fill the cup halfway with icePour ginger beer over the concoction, until just below the rim.DO NOT SHAKE IN SHAKER - it will explode on you, like it did on River!Garnish with more mint and a lime wedgeEnjoy!

Let us Grow with Lettuce Grow
9/8/2022
In this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran talk indoor gardening with an expert on the subject.
Gardening: Did you Know?
Did you know that more than 50% of the food grown in this country goes to waste? It feeds the bottom of trash cans, instead of feeding the millions of Americans that rarely get to taste freshly grown foods.
LettuceGrow saw the problem and set out to help the average American - even city dwellers - start their own mini farms. It is all done simply, conveniently, and takes up very little space, thanks to the Farmstand.
Meeting an Indoor Gardening Guru
For this episode, River and Terran met with LettuceGrow’s co-founder, Jacob Pechenik, so we can learn more about LettuceGrow’s take on sustainable food.
Jacob is a graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a longtime farming and gardening enthusiast. He’s founded or co-founded multiple brands devoted to solving problems related to food, addressing issues such as logistics, waste, chemical use, and more.
After growing all of these fantastic veggies, we had to prepare something for the family. The following is the recipe we used. Check out our social media accounts for bonus footage of us prepping the lettuce wraps.

Alitura Skin Care with Andy Hnilo
8/4/2022
Andy Hnilo of Alitura joined River and Terran on this episode of GoGreenfields to discuss what it takes to keep teenagers’ skin healthy. River and Terran have been taught all their lives that a good, healthy diet will have a positive impact on all aspects of the body and mind. That includes skin health.
A diet full of processed, fatty, unhealthy foods has been proven to be a leading cause of acne, eczema, psoriasis and other such skin conditions. It is no surprise, then, that skin care experts encourage healthy, whole foods. However, even the best diet can’t fully defend against the impacts of hormones. Even the healthiest teens can find themselves combatting oil, dryness, and even some acne, which is why the co-hosts were happy to be working with Andy to create a real routine for better skin.
The Alitura Clay Mask, Where it All Started
The Alitura clay mask was devised, not with the teenager in mind, but by the owner seeking a way to heal his skin after a horrible accident left him in need of intense scans, surgeries, and medications. In order to purify his skin, he developed a clay mask full of the best possible ingredients. The intent may not have been to care for teenage skin, but the result was a clay mask ideal for the oil imbalances so commonly experienced before, during, and in the aftermath of puberty.
Meet Andy Hnilo
Andy Hnilo is an athlete, model and actor, who has always embraced a very healthy lifestyle. When a horrible accident left him in need of serious plastic surgery and hefty medications, he even more eagerly sought healthy solutions. He is quoted as saying, “Out of desperation to repair my own facial scarring, I began making my own natural skincare products at home.” So, he studied skincare and all natural products that could be used to replace brand name, synthetic face washes and creams. The result was a line of product that can benefit us all.

Foods By State 4: Wyoming & Washington
7/14/2022
We’re so excited to be returning to our Foods by State series! These are always some of our favorites and this fourth installment was no exception. River was fighting back laughter when he discovered the main ingredient in Terran’s Food by State spin. What do you think? Are you up for a little (or not so little!) Geoduck?
A Foods by State Reminder
This episode is the fourth in a series called Foods by State. This is based on a list of crazy, unusual, or historic foods that have become associated with the states of our nation. Each state on the wheel comes with an assigned food that must be recreated by the spinner. River was the first to take the wheel and was awarded Wyoming’s Chuckwagon Breakfast. Terran spun next to discover that he would be working with his very own state’s unusual ingredient – Geoduck.

GoGreenfields and Honeybees at Tate’s Honey Farm (Bonus Footage: Honey Oats Granola)
7/1/2022
On this episode of GoGreenfields, River and Terran made the trek to pick up their very own honey bee colony. They purchased their nuk from Tate’s Honey Farm. Tate’s is located in Spokane, WA. It is a family-owned operation that was started in 1971.
What You’ll Find at Tate’s Honey Farm
In addition to nuks, honeybee packages, and queens, Tate’s sells a wide variety of products derived from the wax and honey produced by their own bee colonies. There are small gifts, candles, soaps, and of course lots of honey!
While at the honey farm, River and Terran picked up a couple bottles of freshly extracted, raw honey so they could start getting creative with an ingredient they hope to be using much more in the near future.
First, though, they had to take some time to move the frames from the nuk to their waiting hive box. They were fortunate to have the guidance of beekeeper Donna Mills. She guided them through the process, and you get a front row seat to the whole thing.
Honey Oats Granola
Ingredients
½ C coconut oil - melted downAdd ½ C Tate’s Honey Farm Honey 3C oats 1 ½ c pecan1 c coconut1tsp cinnamon1 tsp vanilla
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degreesHeat coconut oil over low-medium heat until thoroughly melted. Lower heat and add honey to the pot. Be very careful not to cook the honey. Remove from heat after one minute.In a separate, large mixing bowl, combine oats, pecans, coconut, cinnamon, and vanilla.Pour honey mixture over oats and mix thoroughly.Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.Spread oats out on a cookie sheet.Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring at ten minute intervals.Allow to coolAdd apricots, dates, raisins, or any dried fruit of your choosing.Enjoy!

Bubbles: An Awesomely Artistic Episode
6/16/2022
You might have noticed, when scrolling around the GoGreenfields’ website recently, a lot of mention about something called “Bubbles”. Bubbles is a collection of artworks created by River as a result of his year-long mural project. Both River and Terran spent a huge amount of time drawing on their bedroom walls, creating what is truly a spectacle for the eyes.
The original artwork was created with watercolor markers. River decided, after some encouragement from his dad, Ben, to turn the drawings into digital artworks that could then be sold as NFTs.
According to Forbes.com, An NFT is a digital asset that represents real-world objects like art, music, in-game items and videos. They are bought and sold online, frequently with cryptocurrency. That’s a lot of words that may not be easy to understand. River and Terran spent several months, prior to launching Bubbles, learning about NFTs and cryptocurrency, which helped immensely when River decided to take on this project.
Most of this episode, as you might imagine, will be focused on River, but for a little extra bonus, Terran created a special mini class, in which he demonstrates how he drew a piece of his mural.
If you love to draw, paint, or create, then this is the episode for you. Before you watch or listen, be sure that you.
NOTE: Much of the footage seen in this video episode was captured during an exclusive Zoom mural-painting instructional class, offered to anyone who purchased a piece of River’s NFT collection prior to March 19th.

Homemade Dog Treat Recipes
6/2/2022
Meet our accomplices for this Homemade Dog Treat Recipes episode of GoGreenfields—the taste testers!
First, Dasher (aka. Dash) - the forever hungry attention seeker. We have no doubt that Dasher will love whatever dog treat recipe we throw at him.
Second, Comet - the slightly camera-shy, kinda stubborn guy with a particular palate. Comet may be a little harder to please with dog treat recipes.
Both of the pups have appeared on GoGreenfields in the past - usually in their preferred “begging pose” (we’re fairly certain that is or should be a yoga pose). This time, though, they get to serve in the role of “special guest”. In order to tempt these dog treat connoisseurs, River and Terran devised two different treats: oats and apple, and pumpkin peanut butter.
For those who are wondering, our dogs are named after Santa’s reindeer!
River’s Oats and Apple Dog Treat Recipe
¾ Rolled oats
2 cups oat flour (or pulverized rolled oats)
1 cup apple sauce
1 beaten egg (minus one Tablespoon)
Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees.
Consistency of cookie dough
Place in dog treat molds
Carefully remove from molds and placed on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking sheet
Brush on remaining egg with silicone brush
Bake for 30 minutes
Terran’s Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treat Recipe
3 tablespoons peanut butter
15oz can pumpkin puree
3 eggs
½ cups oats
3 cups whole wheat flour
Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees.
Mix peanut butter, pumpkin, and eggs in medium mixing bowl
Add oats and continue mixing until well blended
Stir in flour a little at a time. Once it is too thick too stir, work the dough by hand until fully combined.
Roll to ½” thick
Cut with cookie cutters and place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking sheet
Bake for 30 minutes

Exploring the Microbiome with Ara Katz: Co-Founder & CEO of SEED
5/12/2022
What is the Microbiome? Before we can really talk about how amazing SEED is, we have to understand where it all began… where we all begin. From the moment our mothers birth us, they provide a special gift - a personalized microbiome. A microbiome, very generally speaking, is the community of microorganisms that live in a specified place. That place could be within the cellular structure of a tiny piece of coral reef. It could also be within your gut. Within all of us is a microscopic universe made up of 38 trillion bacteria. The bacteria are both good and bad - but, thankfully, mostly good. The very beginnings of our individualized universes are handed to us, at birth, by our mothers.
Ara Katz was a new mom, sharing that singular gift with her own child when she started on a path that was much longer, and more winding than she could have possibly realized. She sought a superior supplemental formula to those on the market, but she found much more - a team as eager to learn, explore, and engage; a team that wanted to make life better for people and the planet.
Getting to Know Ara Katz
Ara Katz is a Co-founder and CEO of SEED. She defines herself as “ a storyteller, designer, entrepreneur, question-asker, activist, and dot connector”.She is also author of A Kids Book About Your Microbiome and she admits that she is always eager to learn something new. For this interview, though, it was our turn to learn from her, all about the microbiome.
Getting to Know PDS-08 Pediatric Daily Synbiotic
The new kid-formula of SEED’s hugely successful synbiotic has just launched. It is a 2-in-1 powder supplement that can be added to water. It’s formulated for kids and teens 3-17 years old. Unlike other probiotics, this is formulated to have all of the prebiotics needed to ensure that the probiotics can do their job. But, to really understand how it works, let’s turn to the pro…
So, let’s dive into a universe largely unknown and explore how caring for our microbiome can mean a healthier life and a healthier planet.

Unboxing a Package from the Amazing Doc Parsley
4/28/2022
River and Terran were super excited to see a package from Doc Parsley with their name on it. They grabbed their camera, so they could share the unboxing experience with you. Inside the box, they discovered some of Doc Parsley’s Sleep Remedy. They were familiar with the packaging that is so similar to the sleep remedy that their dad had been taking for quite some time, but these boxes were labeled “for kids”, and with heads full of questions, River and Terran set up Zoom for a meeting with the Doc himself!
Meet the Doc
Before jumping into the science of the sleep remedy, let’s take a moment to properly meet the founder. Doc Parsley, also known as Kirk Parsley, M.D. is a retired Navy SEAL. He joined the Navy upon graduation from highschool, at just seventeen years old. It was here that he first learned an appreciation for living in peak form. He had to be physically strong, of course, but he also had to be in a superior mental state in order to endure training and service as a SEAL. He realized that there was more to learn about getting the body to that peak state, and that new interest led him to medical school.
After graduating, Doc Parsley continued his studies in a different way - as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One. Suddenly, he was looking at the military experience from a different standpoint, and really coming to realize the impact too little sleep, and too much stress had on the body. His calling was clear, and work began on the development of a sleep remedy that would provide a natural, healthy sleep each and every night.
The Sleep Remedy
More recently, Doc Parsley has shifted his focus to include a group that has notoriously struggled with sleep - kids. Especially in the pre-teen and teenage years, sleep can be a challenge. In this video, Doc explains the reason for that phenomenon in this video.
The sleep remedy is something that RIver and Terran’s dad, Ben Greenfield, had been using for a while. With the development of a kids’ remedy, it made perfect since for the twins to give it a try. It’s loaded with all of the ingredients needed for a natural, easy sleep that doesn’t leave you groggy the next day:
