Well friends, things are starting to pick up as we near the spring months.
We have had the most successful winter to date in terms of how many boxes per week we have done, and it’s the first winter we have been able to deliver EVERY SINGLE WEEK!
THAT’s Y’ALL...plain and simple. You have turned the Yellowbird Foodshed into a 12 month a year LOCAL FOOD COMPANY. It means so much to the growers to be able to sell food 12 MONTHS a year and not just in “peak” seasons.
In this election year, I have been spitballing slogans for us to goof around with and I thought maybe I would see what you thought about “Yellowbird 2020...Feel The Bird!”. Or perhaps “Yellowbird 2020...I Vote With My Fork!” I’m even thinking about getting us signs that we can put up next to the signs in our yards we will have of our preferred candidates….ideas welcome.
Onto the food this week…
KRAUT!! My favorite doctor, Zach Bush has been talking about how the probiotic industry is actually detrimental to our overall microbiome (i.e. gut life) because it is only fostering the growth of a few different strains of gut bacteria and enzymes. When you eat fermented food like kraut, kombucha, or fermented veggies you are getting so much more of a well-rounded group that you are literally growing your health right in your gut!
Shagbark Beans - Pantry item that keeps forever. We have been cooking them in our instant pot and if you are into Dr. Landry and his “Plant Paradox Diet”, this is the best way to reduce the lectins that are naturally found in beans.
Lettuce, Chard, Microgreens, Carrots, and Watercress are hopefully going to make you a salad that will last you through the weekend!
