Store Notes from Almut:
FRUIT NEWS:
This week we are featuring mostly Ontario Fruit!
FYI: The price on all the Palatine Fruit came down!
- LOCAL Peaches (free-stone) and White Nectarines are the highlights this week. Sweet and succulent.
- Local Blue Plums from Palatine Farm. They look a little like Prune Plums. Sweet and easy to pit. 16 plums will give you 1lb.
... and other Plum varieties are just starting.
- The first B.C. Apples arrived today. Sunrise Apples in 3lb size for $6.25/bag. Sunrise apples are best for snacking, but their crispness makes them great for baking.
- Noteworthy are the BIG Valencia Oranges from South Africa. Yes, they are from far away, but they did not loose any sweetness or juice on their journey. This is truly a superior Orange and the size of a grapefruit.
- Avocados are back in stock!
VEGGIE NEWS:
- LOCAL Pfenning's Carrots grown in New Hamburg are here. Coming in 2lb, 5lb bags and 15lb Juicing size.
- If you love Eggplant, this is the time to buy them. The price is right! They are available in abundance and shining brightly. You can almost see your face in them.
- Check out all the local Squash available.
- Sweet Corn will be available for a while. Steamed first, then rolled in butter with a pinch of salt, need one say more...
MEAT NEWS:
- Our next fresh "Chicken Run" will be on Sept. 25th. The sign-up list will be out shortly and as we come closer to the date we will remind you more frequently.
SOME STORE SPECIALS:
- We have an ongoing Sale until end of August on all Steaks - 30% off regular price. T-Bone, Blade Steak, Rib Steak until September 1st, then the price will go back up to regular.
- New from 3Gen Farm: Organic Bacon Bits in 1lb packages for $9.95.

We hope you all enjoyed the rain we had recently as much as we did - and most of all, all the farmers out there.
Wolfgang told me he saw a bumper sticker on his delivery tour saying: "If you ate today, kiss a farmer." Lots of truth in that. We should be seeing a lot of farmers running around with hickeys.
Enjoy your last week of August,
Almut
