------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have finally done it! We will be open Thursday from 10:00 am to 7:00
pm with, for now, a limited selection of outstanding local, organic, or
sustainable products. Through June we will be open one day a week -
Thursdays - to allow us to finish up some store projects and some field
planting. In July we plan to have a grand opening with a complete
selection of products from local organic and sustainable producers, and
responsible regional organic producers. Be patient with us as we grow,
we had to get final health department and building inspector approval
before we could put the word out about the store, so we apologize for
not being able to give more notice. An LLC partnership between myself
and Tom Gordy, we are going to make sure to uphold strict sustainable
and organic standards - more strict than the USDA, and we will ALWAYS
support and give preference to area local sustainable and organic
farmers. When I told local farmer and quality food producer Bobby
Johnson about our plans and how farmers were going to come first he
said, "well, you understand, you've bled with the rest of us." We had
been discussing how long we have needed such an outlet locally and how
hard it is to sell your products when you are excluded from area
stores. When local products are not available, we will fill in the gaps
with products from Organic Valley, and Eden foods only, as these
companies have regional mid west production, are they are the only
companies that are truly upholding strict standards and paying farmers
what they deserve.
