This [cheeky ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/so-clean-you-can-kiss-it) for a fictitious co-op is by Katelin Anderson, and is titled ‘Mother Nature’s Mid-Life Crisis.’ The project features five [fruit-filled print ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-veggie-snacks), each with its own copy that comments on Mother Nature’s sensuous curves.

For example, the first ad features an image of orange trees on a branch and the copy, “Compliment her on her big, round, juicy oranges. (It makes Mother feel young again.)” The tagline for the ‘Mother Nature’s Mid-Life Crisis’ campaign remains the same: “The Fresh Food CO-OP, getting busy with Mother Nature since 1992.”

Katelin Anderson is a student at the [University of Idaho](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zeidler-architecture) who’s set to graduate next month. From the looks of this project, it looks like she has a promising future.
