Voluntary Recall of ALL Pressure canned Soups from Barrie Bros.

To all our wonderful customers,

We are sharing the press releases and emails below from Tim Barrie of Barrie Bros.

Barrie Bros. have voluntarily recalled all of their pressure canned soups. We are happy to take back your unopened jars purchased from Bailey's Local Foods at the next pickup for a full refund.

At this time, we ask that you please join us in supporting Barrie Bros by considering purchasing their other fine products such as Stone Wheat and Vegetable Crackers, Asparagus Pasta Sauce, Asparagus Salsa and many varieties of pickles. Barrie Bros. is a local farmer who is trying to change the food system. Let's help Tim to succeed! After this recall, I trust that if there was any concern with the other products they sell we would be aware of them right away.

We are sending this notice to all members who currently choose to receive our "Standard Notification" emails and will personally email all customers who have ordered Barrie Brothers pressure canned soups through our ordering system. Our apologies if you have received this twice, but your health and safety is very important to us.

We thank you for your understanding and are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Further to the recall of our broccoli soup, as a precautionary measure, we are asking customers and retail locations to return all pressure canned soups the point of purchase for credit.
The soups were manufactured in a Guelph-area food production facility contracted by Barrie Brothers, and it has been determined that there was inadequate processing.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your assistance with this voluntary recall.

Bailey's Buying Club - Ordering is now open for Monday December 20th

Click http://baileyslocalfoods.ca/ordering to log-in and order. Ordering closes at 8:00 pm on Tuesday, December 15th (much shorter than last time).
Please be sure to read the wavier on our website when you log in. It reminds you that items placed your shopping cart are automatically saved (there is no 'checkout' button).

Items you order this week are to be picked up at First United Church on Monday December 20th between 3:30 PM and 7:00 PM. Ordering will end on Tuesday, December 15th, 2010 at 8:00 PM

***Please note - Upcoming  MONDAY pickups are January 17, February 28, March 28 and April 18. Friday Pickups will resume at the end of May.

Hello lovers of local food!

Wasn't the pickup day on Monday AMAZING? We are so lucky to have so much local food in December! Enjoy it while it's here! I went home to get my camera, but never took a photo.

Isn't this a lovely blast of winter we've gotten? Sure, it would have been nice to have some schools and businesses closed like our friends down the highway in London, but lots of snow really makes pick up day less fun.

This will be the last pickup of 2010 with almost a month until the January 17th pickup. We're taking the holidays off and will have the order form ready for you on January 5th. Stock up on all your favourites! Have you planned your holiday meal(s) yet? If you're cooking turkey you have lots of time to defrost the one you pick up on the 20th!

This week's order form is extra special. We have many new and amazing products to offer you. One of them is Monforte cheese! I've wanted to offer it since I became a part of Bailey's but Ruth Klassen took a year off of cheese making to build a dairy in Stratford (Wow!) Even more exciting is we will be taking vouchers from those of you who are subscribers to the Monforte CSA! Obviously, the vouchers can only be used for up to the amount of cheese you purchase (in $5 increments).

Other great items on offer this week are:
  • Paul Bowman is offering his 'LOFT' Strawberry Jam on Sale and he also has greens available!
  • Paul has also decided to grate and freeze his butternut squash so that we can have it available to us further into the winter.Look for it in the 'squash' section under 'vegetables'
  • Golden Hearth Bakery is now offering frozen Pizza dough!!!You can get Spelt, Unbleached and Whole Wheat to make a perfect pizza at home!
  • Did you taste the samples of Evelyn's Crackers? They are truly gourmet and would be wonderful for sharing over the holiday season as gifts or on a tray with cheese and such. Look for them for a special holiday price too!
  • Did you taste the From These Roots jams on Monday? I bet they'd go great with any of the cheeses
  • New Moon Kitchens vegan spelt Cookies are also new on the offering list. So tasty and made with Oak Manor Spelt Flour. They even have a Gluten Free Mackies available!
  • Gift Baskets are gorgeous and great for that person who has everything. Imagine their delight at a lovely array of local goodies!
  • Want to share the gift of Bailey's? Buy your neighbour a one year membership to Bailey's Local Foods and the gift of pear apple sauce too!
Pickup Day Extras
We will have vendors again on December 20th, Thanks to all those who participated on Monday. This is the last call for anyone interested in showing their wares. All table proceeds will be donated to a local food based charity. Let us know as soon as possible. Space will fill up quickly.

Also, we will be collecting toiletry items for the House of Friendship again. Thank you so much for your generosity on Monday!

What came first, the chicken or the egg?
Remember that Eggs are now in the dairy section! Once someone explains why tomatoes are vegetables, then we can try to figure out why Eggs are dairy...

Keep warm,
Rachael and Maryrose,

P.S. We can use your fruit boxes, baskets and jars from preserves again if you return them.

    Bailey's Buying Club - Ordering for Monday December 6th still open!

    Click http://baileyslocalfoods.ca/ordering to log-in and order. Ordering closes at 8:00 pm on Tuesday, November 30th. (sorry about the error in the last message)
    Please be sure to read the wavier on our website when you log in. It reminds you that items placed your shopping cart are automatically saved (there is no 'checkout' button).

    Items you order this week are to be picked up at First United Church on Monday December 6th between 3:30 PM and 7:00 PM. Ordering will end on Tuesday, November 30th, 2010 at 8:00 PM

    ***Please note - Upcoming  MONDAY pickups are December 20, January 17, February 28, March 28 and April 18 (NEW Date!). Weekly Friday pickups will resume at the end of May.

    Hi Local Eaters!

    The house is quiet and I realize that when we have 3 weeks between pickups the fridge can actually get empty (it even got cleaned today). It's time to look to the freezer and all the fruit and vegetables that we put away over the summer and fall. We have some members who in previous years have waited until the official beginning of winter to start enjoying the preserved and frozen goodness of summer. Could you wait until December 21 to start eating your lovely jars of peaches or frozen raspberries?

    We've continued to work on the order form since it opened and there are a few notable additions/changes:
    • Gluten Free Christmas Cookies and Wheat Free Gingerbread Cookies from Circle of Life
    • The Nutty Bakers have light and dark fruit cake to choose from.
    • Holiday Boxes from Traditional Foods. You could give these as gifts or use them for holiday entertaining!
    • Jams and preserves in CASES! Stock up on your favourites or give them as gifts!
    • Speaking of cases we have a great price on pear applesauce by the case. A great sauce to mix with your granola or yogurt.
    • By popular demand the Eggs have now been moved into the dairy section - unfortunately they are sold out already
    • Oak Manor has extended their flour SALE through to the December 6th Pickup
    • Potatoes in 50 lb bags from Ivan Brubacher, washed or unwashed
    • Evelyn's Crackers in four varieties now available - look under 'baked goods'
    Give the gift of Local Food
    Are you stumped on what to get someone on your gift giving list?
    We have put together three different sizes of gift baskets for the person that has everything. You can see them here http://www.baileyslocalfoods.ca/GiftBaskets.php. You could also Give the Gift of Bailey's - A Gift Membership with Pear Apple Sauce. You can find all of these items along with some others in the Gift section located in the 'other' category.

    We also have many items that can be used for Teacher's gifts, office gift giving, hostess gifts or stuffing stockings. Here are a few suggestions from Maryrose:
    • Use a nice bowl and add a Pop a Cob or coloured popcorn
    • Anna Tolazzi has beautiful boxed Hot Chocolate. Katharina also has boxes of pre-wrapped chocolate bon-bons (each is a very tasty piece of art). Great to have on hand just in case. Katharina's chocolate bars are delicious and have stunning graphic packaging. I would love her chocolate in my stocking
    • Golden Hearth has ginger cookies and Belgian crackle cookies. Wrap them in a dish cloth and you have a great gift.
    • Keep an eye out on the Spontaneous table as there are a few other items in the works we should have by pick up day.
    Cheese Please?
    For all you fancy local cheese lovers, we hope to offer Monforte Cheese for the December 20th pickup. We may also accept vouchers from their CSA Program. Stay tuned!

    Helping others
    In January we added the option to donate to a local food based charity on our order form (under 'other'). We are able to issue receipts to anyone who has donated more than $10 as well, so you get a great deal while helping others. We have already donated $1000 in local dried beans to the Food Bank of Waterloo Region though the Canstruction competition (more at http://www.thefoodbank.ca/en/events/canstruction.asp) and it's never too late for you to donate. The donation option is on our order form because last year Michelle shared the struggles she faced when the demand for emergency food at Christmas was greater than ever before. Michelle is asking us to help again in a different way. Please read the following message from a good friend and one of our Volunteers:

    Hi, My name is Michelle and I am one of many volunteers at Bailey's Local Foods. When I am not sorting food on pick up day or ordering many new things on line to eat, I am an employee of the House of Friendship. In my role, I support many families who are living on a limited income, who experience food insecurity and often social isolation.

    With the holiday season rapidly approaching I find myself thinking about our dedication to supporting local farmers/local food and how this philosophy could be extended to helping local people in need.

    In the spirit of giving over the holiday season and staying connected to the theme of all things local, Rachael and Maryrose have agreed to support my idea of collecting basic personal care items for local people in need.

    Items such as toothpaste, tooth brushes, floss, deodorant, socks, shampoo and others are highly needed by the House of Friendship Programs. If this is something you would like to contribute to there will be a collection box for any donations during the Dec 6 and Dec 20 pick up dates . If you have any questions please feel free to find me at the pick up and I would be happy to chat or feel free to email me at michelle@baileyslocalfoods.ca.

    If you would like more information about The House of Friendship and the programs they offer please visit their website at www.houseoffriendship.org.

    Keep warm and enjoy the snow!

    Bailey's Buying Club - Ordering is now open for Monday December 6th

    Click http://baileyslocalfoods.ca/ordering to log-in and order. Ordering closes at 8:00 pm on Tuesday, November 30th.
    Please be sure to read the wavier on our website when you log in. It reminds you that items placed your shopping cart are automatically saved (there is no 'checkout' button).

    Items you order this week are to be picked up at First United Church on Monday December 6th between 3:30 PM and 7:00 PM. Ordering will end on Tuesday, November 30th, 2010 at 8:00 PM

    ***Please note - Upcoming  MONDAY pickups are December 20, January 17, February 28, March 28 and April 18 or 25. Friday Pickups will resume at the end of May.

    Hi Local Eaters!

    It seems too soon to think about the December 6th pickup, but the order form is open for you now!

    Here are some highlights:
    • Oak Manor Flour is still on sale!
    • Green Table Foods now has Chili and Curry in 744 mL glass jars!
    • More excellent teas (including Winter Flu Fighter) from Little City Farm!
    • New Hot Sauce from Country Flavour - Made with cherries!
    • Organic Sweet Potatoes from Pfennings
    • There is a new 'squash' section under 'vegetables' - look for the Sweet Mama Squash there and a 'gifts' section under 'other' with great gifts like baskets and memberships!
    Local Crafts Too!
    To get ready for the holiday season we would like to invite some local artisans to show their wares at the next two pickups so you can give local items as gifts or buy them for yourself! If you are interested in displaying your own items, please let us know what you have to offer! We will be asking vendors for a $20 table fee that will go to a local food based charity.

    In the spirit of fostering entrepreneurship we would like to invite local children to sell crafts in the new year and through the summer. Think of it as a great spot for a lemonade stand! If you and your children are interested (yes, we need a parent involved), please let us know! We will have one table available at each pickup and will be asking children for a $5 table fee that will go to a local food based charity.

    Holiday Favourites
    We have so many amazing foods that are a treat, especially when the weather gets cold! In addition to the hot chocolate from Anna Tolazzi (It's Katharina's mother's name). We have sparkling cider from The Cider Keg in delicious flavours like peach, raspberry, strawberry-rhubarb and cranberry in addition to apple and golden apple (drier for the more refined palate). These are also great beverages to have on hand during holiday festivities. What's better than a bowl of popcorn drizzled with ghee? You can go simple, organic or gourmet with all the selection from Ontario Popping Corn! For extra fun try one of the Pop-A-Cobs. They can make great stocking stuffer's too! Oh and don't forget about Christmas Fruit Cake. The Nutty Bakers have a light and dark cake to choose from.

    Easy Snacks
    I had some ladies over for a meeting tonight and found that the absolute easiest and tastiest treat to share was a bag of Tortilla chips from McKechnie, some salsa (you have your choice!) and hummus from Green Table Foods. The best news this week is that Doug has begun experimenting with local corn so we may get lucky and have locally made tortilla chips with local corn for the next pickup. I'll keep you posted. The chips, while best when super fresh, do have a three month shelf life, so you can stock up! You never know who will stop by over the Holiday Season.

    Gift Baskets
    Maryrose and Aura came over the other day and put together three gorgeous gift baskets for gift giving this season! We'd love to share the 100 Miler (large), Regional Favourites (medium) and The Sceptic Locavore (small) with you. An idea of what is included in each is at http://www.baileyslocalfoods.ca/GiftBaskets.php. You will find them in the 'gifts' section under 'other'.

    Talking Turkey
    Kevin wants you to roast one of his turkeys for your holiday meal. I asked him why we should buy his birds. Here is his response:

    Why Snyder Heritage Farms Turkeys?

    This is what we do on our farm:
    • We produce and blend our own feed. (We know what's in it)
    • We us crops grown on our farm.
    • GMO Free Grains are used.
    • Drug Free birds.
    • No animal by-products.
    • Pre and Probiotics are used for a healthier bird.
    • Fresh Cryovac Frozen for food Safety and Quality (Find the processed date, not the best before)
    • Best management practices: Environmental Farm Plan, Food Safety and Traceability and a Farm Food Safety Program - We believe these courses are an important part of our farm so we can produce a high quality product.
    • We have nothing to hide about the way we grow our Birds, we "Grow Healthy and Happy Turkeys"
    Please visit our website for more info at snyderheritagefarms.com.

    Thanks Kevin & Anne Snyder
    Snyder Heritage Farms

    P.S. Did you know Turkey is classed as a Super Food for it's Health benefits, the only meat protein on the list! Check out the super food list at http://www.cookingnook.com/10-healthiest-foods.html.

    We'll check in again before ordering closes on November 30th.

    Hasn't this week been beautiful? We've raked leaves and played street hockey and looked in awe at the frost on the lawn this morning. I still need to plant garlic. I just hate to sacrifice any of the bulbs on my counter.
     
    The folks at Pristine Gourmet are likely going to come and sample their wonderful products on Monday. If you haven't yet tried their sauces, vinegars and oils, this is your chance! They're truly gourmet! We had their Blueberry Baco Noir Wine Vinegar on salad greens
     

    A few suggestions while you shop:
    • Gluten Free Multigrain from Green Table Foods is soooo good!
    • Fusilli from Barrie Bros. in two flavours
    • Bread and other treats from Golden Hearth - they freeze well!
    • Flours on sale from Oak Manor
    • Pear-Apple Sauce to mix with yogurt. Mmmm!
    • More mushrooms and sauerkraut now available
    • Chocolate bars and hot chocolate from Anna Tolazzi
    • Creme fraiche for on top of everything (including baked potatoes)
    • Salad Greens - They can last 2-3 weeks in the frridge if you don't eat them first!
    Enjoy,
    Rachael and Maryrose
