| Supporting Family-Owned Artisan Producers of Hard-to-Find Ingredients since 1999 |
At this time last week we had been up for almost 5 hours, and the light had already changed dramatically -- it was almost too harsh to shoot. I had made an overnight trip to Eastern Washington with my producer, Sara, to expose her to the amber waves of grain. Rising early, like those who harvest our food and bring us the bounty for which we are blessed, the grousing disappeared and turned into joy as the first hint of light broke over the horizon transforming the sky as only a new day can.
The sun, cracking the door of darkness, spilled its light across the darkened earth, painting a rolling landscape covered in swatches of green, yellow, and amber color.

Our trip was a great success. Not only did we capture people and their passion on “film”, but we also met for the first time a grain called Einkorn, a “new” grain that is a million years old - and a precursor to one of our favorites, Emmer.
Read more about Einkorn, and order now for fall delivery.
Additionally, over the years many of you have asked about Sweet Washington Onions. Well, if the crop is good, Brad the Farmer will sell us some of his just planted sweet onions. Stay tuned to future newsletters, while we figure out how many onions to sell in each order, and its price.

A “tease” to a much larger project, we are working on a series about food, hunger, and nutrition. Click here.
Renee, from Lentz Family Farms, talks about Einkorn.

Nicolas Alziari Olive Oil
It’s here! 1-liter tins of Nicholas Alziari Olive Oil in the famous blue tin. The silky golden oil of this little black olive - technically known as the callietier variety - is highly prized in the South of France, and points beyond. We have secured a shipment of some of the best. Rarely seen outside of Nice, Nicolas Alziari's golden oil is a must for true olive oil aficionados.
