Medicine Gardens produce at La Minestra!

We're excited to tell you that we'll be supplying our favorite local restaurant La Minestra with produce this summer.  We absolutely love their passion for food and the creativity and originality they bring to their menu and special items.  Last summer we supplied them with a few items and they combined our Sungold cherry tomatoes and Desert King yellow fleshed watermelon with feta and mint to make the mouthwatering salad in the picture.  We're thrilled to see our produce put to such good use again this year, and we can't wait to see what they come up with next. 

We'll be supplying them with tomatoes, Italian sweet peppers, zucchini, cukes, basil, and other special items like the occasional melons or squash.  Look for our produce at La Minestra starting in a few weeks and lasting throughout the summer. 

Spinach this Saturday!

We're very excited, because we've got lots of spinach for you this weekend at the Capital City Farmers' Market!  Our spinach bed is overflowing with tasty, tender goodness, so we're picking a bunch today.  We'll also have a few heads of broccoli, along with all of our soaps, lip balms, and lotion bars.  Remember, the market is from 9 am to noon, Saturday mornings on the corner of Sioux and Coteau.  There will be lots of other great vendors, too.

We've also noticed that the nice little local newspaper article about us has traveled to a few other papers, running in the Rapid City Journal and the Scottsbluff Star Herald out of Nebraska.  We think the trend toward local, whole foods is growing, and great press like this supports that notion.  Hopefully it gets a few more people to go to their local farmers' market to see what all the hoopla is about.
