Weblog from a few of our Grower’s:
Bean Man: New this week is our Ready to Mix Cream of Mushroom Soup – all you need is water. Each package contains two packs of Pre-Cleaned, De-Stemmed, Dried, Certified Shiitake Organic Mushrooms. The package also contains two packets of dry mix containing Twice-milled White Bean Flour, Shiitake Mushroom Powder (milled by the us) and dashes of Garlic Powder, Onion Powder and Salt for a super-healthy, Vegan soup mix – you would never know it from the taste. We give you the instructions on the package including how to reconstitute the dried mushrooms in a way that keeps the nutrients as well as their consistency. Each packet set gives you 6 Cups of delicious soup. You can refrigerate and re-use for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 weeks. It also makes a wonderful casserole base (especially if you are dairy-free) and gravy so nothing goes to waste!
We have all of our Fresh Dry Beans, Mixes, Scottish Oatmeals, Gluten Free Flours, Pizza Crust Packs and Ready to Mix products available for you to provide healthy options for Breakfast, Lunch, Supper and Snacks.
Quarter Spring Farm: Spring has sprung, which means we have beautiful blue and brown chicken eggs available on the market this week. And if your spring cleaning routine includes cleaning yourself, be sure to check out our selection of skin and planet friendly soaps, shampoos, and lotions.
