Box #19   It’s that time of week, where we all gather round the dinner table and start to see what Ohio (and sometimes Florida) has to offer us.

SHOP ALL MEAT HERE LAST FOR TODAY...we have a fresh shipment of the The Wild Salmon Co. salmon on it’s way so in the next couple of weeks that favorite will be back in stock.   Thought for the day:   As we see the “headlines” around the “unstable” food system, remember that it’s unstable because the corporate giants that have built it, were not building it to take care of the land, farmer, animal, consumer, and food products.  They were building it to sell us a cheap, homogenized, bland, de-nutrified, easily transported pieces of things that look like food but are literally starving us of what we need to flourish as planet and homo sapiens.   As grandpa always said, “You get what you pay for.” THERE IS PLENTY OF REAL FOOD AND IT’S TIME WE START EATING LIKE IT!   Disclaimer: These are the items we have planned for you to get this week!
