What a pocket of a place we're lucky to live in, this week's featured items are a slice of why!
Good Land Organics is right up the road in Goleta, but they might as well be on a magical land where sub-tropical climates converge with winter seasons. OH WAIT, that's their magic land!
Thanks to the amazing small sub-climates in our foothills, our friends at Good Land Organics can grow all kinds of things, including this week's Cherimoyas (also known as banana custard in some places), only $5.99/lb! This is a short season special item, get it while you can! And they are picking a limited run of Blood Oranges, only $2.99/lb!
And we're so excited that we keep seeing Tom Shepherd's produce at the Co-op. Tom is one of our oldest farmers, and we're grateful to support his delicious offerings as often as we can!
This week we're featuring his brassicas, both Cauliflower and Broccoli for only $1.99/lb! His broccoli stems are some of the sweetest we've tasted too, so don't leave those behind. Simply cut the tough outer layer off and you're left with a rich, tender and delicious broccoli stalk that's perfect to steam, roast or saute!
Not featured but worth noting: locally foraged Chantarelle Mushrooms from the Gaviota Coast, only $13.99/lb!!! These usually retail for closer to $30/lb so get this deal while you can. Thank you rain for helping the mushrooms grow!
