A message from Rachael:


Simple salad.

Earlier this week we had a meal of sausages, leftover potato salad and cucumber salad. I think everyone enjoyed the cucumber salad most. The cukes from Roseland Produce were halved and sliced, then mixed with cottage cheese from Organic Meadow and then salted and lightly peppered. So simple and so fresh and good. What is inspiring you as the weather warms up? We won't talk about the forecast for this weekend.

Soup from Stratford
Soup Surreal is our newest supplier. You might have tried Derek's soup at the slow food market in Stratford or at Stemmler's. He is offering three soups for the May 30th pickup: Moroccan Tomato, Maple Roasted Sweet Potato and Lemon Grilled Asparagus. What is not to like?

Here is Derek Denny's introduction:
"I am delighted to introduce Soup Surreal products to your home. With emphasis on quality and local ingredients, Soup Surreal Products are made with passion and skill. For the past 12 years I have trained in many kitchens locally and internationally. As the head Chef and owner of Soup Surreal sharing my love for flavours and quality ingredients comes with great pride. Most Soup Surreal products are Gluten Free*, and absolutely no MSG or Preservatives are added.
It is my commitment to you and your family to provide a quality and comforting soup to fill your bowl.
*Soup Surreal products are NOT produced in a Gluten Free Kitchen, although the recipes are Gluten Free there may be traces of wheat or barley."


So much more:
  • Apple Creek Farms has lots of frozen sauce and cider made from their excellent organic apples. There is still lots of canned sauce, apple butter and honey.
  • We've got asparagus and Rhubarb from Barrie's Asparagus on the order form! Let's hope that the supply will be plentiful by May 30th so that there is enough for us!
  • Tofu from Ontario Natural is changing to one pound packages! The price has changed accordingly but it's still a great deal and super tasty!
  • Sheep milk  is available in 1 and 4 L jugs from Harrington Lane Farms now. It's pasteurized, but not homogonized so the cream will rise to the top!
Upcoming events!
