Tomatoes
Local tomatoes are peaking right now and we have lowered the price this week!

Check out all the amazing colors and varieties.

The cherry tomato mix is one of my personal favorites for quick snacks and salads.


Cabbage
Tender Napa Cabbage from Markristo Farm is best thinly sliced or shredded in salads with grated carrot and your favorite sesame dressing.

Check out one of my favorite summer salad recipes below.
Cauliflower

Local cauliflower is the best! 


I love to just cut it into bite size florets, roast it at 400 for 30 minutes and drizzle it with a little melted butter and squeeze of fresh lemon and cilantro.

So satisfying & delicious!



Sweet Mini Peppers

This is the lowest price we'll see on these sweet mini peppers all year and they are locally grown to boot!


Not only are these peppers great to snack on or add to salads, but they are even better stuffed with your favorite cheese and herbs grilled or roasted. Check out the recipe below. 



Cucumbers & Squash

Although you may be getting tired of these summer produce staples, the season will end in the next few weeks.


This has been a great season for local cucumbers and summer squash.

Hipster Ale

American Pale Ale, 5.5% ABV

 

Hipster Ale Perhaps you heard of a worldwide beer-movement that tributes favorite hipster neighbourhoods across the globe. If you feel excluded because you’re hip but your city is not, this cutting-edge, ‘hip without border’ pale ale is an homage to you - the global hipster. Cheers! 

4-pack, 12oz cans



Sunshine Slacker

Session India Pale Ale, 4.5% ABV

 

Despite his bitterness, lack of power and insuperable aversion to any kind of extravagant labor - he kind of has a charming charisma, and perhaps he is even loveable. Somehow we find him unbelievable irresistible and stimulating because he is one of the few that masters the ability to effortlessly impress with his sharp intelligence and make it look so damn easy. 

4-pack, 16oz cans

Add your favorite herbs to your favorite goat cheese, ricotta or dairy-free cheese, stuff the bite-size peppers and roast for 5-10 minutes!

Not sure what to do with eggplant? This dish is simple and surprisingly very tasty. 
A gluten-free, refined sugar-free, vegan summer plum and blueberry crisp. Enjoy for dessert with a scoop of ice cream, or breakfast with plain yogurt.
