Perhaps the most ridiculous (and ridiculously amazing) question that I have ever been asked: "Can I make you some bread to go with the soup i'm cooking for lunch (while I babysit your kids)?" 🥰 That's my mom. Curator of the famous "fridge dump soup" and the only person I know who can take a pot of slimy left-over oatmeal and turn it into a golden loaf of oatmeal bread. Thanks mom - you're a huge inspiration to me in this project as we find new ways to value "leftovers" and bring forgotten food back into the spotlight.

We outgrew our original location, sent out a plea for help, and the incredible Jarrett at T&T Seeds answered our cry. 🦸‍♂️ They have heroically opened up their space for us to use, so the Winnipeg pick-up will be next Saturday, January 19th, at T&T Seeds on Roblin Blvd from 9:00-5:00. For those closer to Brandon, the pick-up will be at the home of another wonderfully generous soul - at 318 11th St, from 2:00-6:00. Feeling awestruck at all the amazing humans who are helping out in so many ways 💗 On a similar note - we are looking for a few extra people to help out with scooping grain, weighing product, helping out with a kids play area, and helping to keep things organized on the 19th. We can offer a discount on your share, but will need a few friendly people who can be there from 8:00am to 5:30pm. Send me a message if this is you!

Thanks to the Winnipeg Sun for reaching out and covering our crazy project. But most of all, we're SOOOOO proud of our little Alexis who had the courage to be interviewed (en francais) on Radio-Canada this morning 🙂

Looks like we're not the only ones excited about local grains and pulses...Manitoba, you helped us rocket past our goals, and we're so thrilled that TWO hundred of you will be stocking up on your winter food supplies next weekend. To accommodate, we will be extending the order deadline until the end of friday (but flour-like add-ons will only be available today).

We're not the only ones who are excited about flaxseed, and we're thrilled that TWO HUNDRED of you have joined us on this local eating adventure, and will be picking up your winter grain and pulses next weekend. To accomodate, we are extending the order deadline until the end of Friday (but today is still the last day for flour/spelt add-ons).
