Early life
Redmond was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan to Tim and Pattie Redmond. Her parents are credited with helping to bring the natural food movement to America to help mainstream "alternative" foods, such as soy milk, through their company Eden Foods.
The Redmonds put great emphasis on the concept "you are what you eat". They wanted their children to eat as healthily and as naturally as possible. This concept is later explored in Sara's speeches and on Get Fresh with Sara Snow. The family believes that eating a raw foods diet, with foods grown close to where one lives, is better for the body and the environment.
