Welcome to
Community Corner!
This is a blog for us to share more with you about food, whether that’s suggestions for food to get when getting groceries, information about composting and gardening, or shedding light on where systems are not serving food producers or consumers. We’ll also share a brief summary from workshops when we can. Posts are currently scheduled for every other Wednesday - stay tuned!

The unfortunate reality, however, is that not all grocery stores – even those of the same chain–are created equally.
There are a multitude of benefits to eating seasonally: eating produce that is in season is fresher, it tastes better and is even more nutritious! It also allows for a varied diet in accord with the Earth’s changing seasons.
