We are CLOSED for RETIREMENT! 4-15-19
After 8 years of serving you, we have decided to retire. We have enjoyed our experience bringing you organic local produce, meats, fish, dairy and pantry as well as making lunch, specialty dinners and catering for you! We have delighted in getting to know you, our suppliers and our customers from all over the Midwest and beyond!
We will be continuing our goals to promote organic and sustainably produced foods, as well as clean healthy eating! We are expanding our own gardens at home and buying selectively from those individuals and companies that share that purpose.
Thank you for your loyalty, patronage and friendships developed along the way. Hoping our paths cross down the road.
Sincerely, Debi
