special new this year! FRESHLY ROASTED COFFEE FROM ROSTOV'S! No more wishing you had remembered to swing by the coffee shop.
Epic Gardens Community Cooperative delivers impeccably fresh locally grown produce to your door. A loosely organized group of farming friends cooperate to do this for our community.
Along with regular fare (like heirloom Tomatoes, Leafy Greens, Squashes, Beans, Peas and Sweet Corn) Epic Gardens is known for somewhat quirky (read 'Gourmet') items like Tomatillos and Cilantro, armloads of an extra aromatic variety of Sweet Basil, Molukhia (Jute, a green leafy staple of middle eastern cuisine), Bitter Melon, gourmet sweet melons, Jimmy Nardello and Black Pearl Peppers, Edible Bouquets, Organic Sweet Potatoes and, of course, Edamame.
Every week or so, an interesting and informative newsletter will appear with recipes and suggestions for using the unusual and new ideas for the usual vegetables.
EGG SHARES are available for $60 for 12 dozen, but you will need to reserve them the weeks you want them, because of the great demand.
