The Local Garlic has ARRIVED!!

These are still fairly fresh, so won't be appropriate to be put away for long storage just yet, but the smell of them means they won't last long in your house!

Same price as last year: $4.50/100g

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

** EDIT: I apologize this didn't post on Sunday when these normally come out, but I only just saw the error msg...and when I attempted to repost it, it said "Oops...something went wrong", so I had to do it all over again. Here's hoping πŸ™„πŸ€ž **

There's a LOT of chatter out there about the BEST way to eat, when to eat, what not to eat or when not to eat. It can make it all very confusing! We are complex creatures, but I think it's usually best to not overcomplicate too many things in our lives, or else, not knowing where to begin, we sometimes just don't, or get extra stressed, and there goes all the joy from our experience with food. You know we're all about Food Joy around here!

A relatively simple set of 'Rules', if we can even call them that, which I have found useful, comes from very well-known Investigative Food Journalist, Michael Pollan (at the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism, his official title is 'Knight Professor of Science and Environmental Journalism'). They are: Eat Food. Not too much. Mostly Plants. Simple right? But what does that mean? Well, I look at it this way (and he has also broken it down similarly):
πŸ‘‰ Eat Food: Focus mainly on preparing meals from whole food ingredients. That doesn't mean that you can't lean into convenience when you need to, but building a relationship with your food by knowing what you're eating and where it comes from is very important.
πŸ‘‰ Not Too Much: Eating mindfully and taking the time to enjoy what you're eating has been shown time and again in studies to give us more than just fuel. We will also know when we're satisfied long before we feel uncomfortably full.
πŸ‘‰ Mostly Plants: This isn't a suggestion to go Vegetarian or Vegan; it means that your Nan was right when she was telling you to eat your Veg! Since we get protein from EVERYTHING we eat, that includes plants (fruit/veg/nuts/seeds/beans/legumes/whole grains), but they also offer us SO many micronutrients, polyphenols, and a myriad of other plant compounds that do us no end of good!

A simple place to start and SO easy to expand on! Get tucked in!

Honestly, it's stories like these that absolutely make my day. This person didn't write a review because of something they bought from me, indeed I remember the conversation they are mentioning here, and I did not feel comfortable selling them anything because I knew that there was something going on outside the scope of what I carry in-store could help. It was more important they find the cause of what they were going through, and again, that is outside my scope of expertise. I am so happy they got the care they needed. Being vulnerable enough to share that story online means that maybe someone else out there will be confident enough to advocate for themselves and get the care they need.
This review can be found on the store's Google listing, if you want to read my response. I try to respond to any review we get, because even though most people don't realize it, they are so important to us as small business owners. They are also helpful to others, especially ones like this, because when the public sees them, they may hear a similar story to their own and know they are not alone.

This is usually the time of year when Parents (and plenty of other curious people in general) begin to play a little in the kitchen. Looking for new recipes to try out, new ways to make old favourites, or how to introduce new ingredients they haven't worked with before. Enter the Nourish cookbook!
We have one of these out on display so you can look through the pages and see the delicious adventure you are about to go on!
