Tastes Like Summer
We've already had some fantastic raspberries, blueberries, apricots, and cherries this year. Looking for simple ways to enjoy these seasonal fruits? Try this blueberry cake, apricots stuffed with blue cheese, or chunky cherry jam. How about a cocktail of gin, blueberry and basil? Squash blossoms can be harvested, stuffed with cheese, and fried. Homemade condiments for summer barbecue parties? Here's how to make your own mayo, mustard, and ketchup. |
Goings On

Flood Relief
A wet June and rapid snow melt resulted in flooding through much of BC. In Abbotsford, Glen Valley Organic Farm lost about $40,000 in crops. Vancity has agreed to match the public's donations, so if you can help, even in a small way, it will be greatly appreciated. |
