Green Pasture ALERT: butter oil items are starting to re-stock this week
Hello, friends!
For those of you who were waiting for Green Pasture's butter oil items to re-stock, they are coming in now! According to their blog (http://www.greenpasture.org/public/Blog/ -- their preferred way of communicating), items are starting to re-stock today, and there are a few that have already appeared on their price list.
I will keep our order timeline as previously announced, so that we can (hopefully) get in on what is coming back in stock this week, and then try to get other items people might want in next month's order. They are restricting quantities, so get what you need for the next few weeks and we'll go back for more next month.
Green Pasture order info again:
Family-owned business that provides high-quality sacred-food oils just as they were made prior to the industrialized food and farming revolution.
We receive 12+ pricing.
Shop at http://www.greenpasture.org/public/Order/ and please have orders (new or updated) to me by Fri., Oct. 19.
Thanks to the the butter-oil fairies and to YOU for ordering with me!

group orders for nutrient-dense foods currently underway
Hello, friends of healthy foods!
I would like to let you know about a handful of group orders I am currently coordinating, with order deadlines coming up this week. If you're interested in any of them, please let me know as soon as possible. And feel free to contact me directly with any questions.
Before I go any further I want to emphasize that I'm only willing to order items that are NOT available locally. I am committed to supporting our local farmers, who work hard to provide our community with pastured meats, eggs, and milk; produce; honey; and more. In fact, my hope is that somewhere down the line I could coordinate group buying for local farmers, in order to facilitate consumers' connecting directly with their food, as well as farmers receiving the largest portion of the money that consumers pay for their food.
Here are the orders currently underway.
US Wellness Meats:
They have many products, such as pastured organ-meat products (liverwurst, braunschweiger, etc.), sugar-free bacon, pemmican and jerky, and wild-caught shrimp, that are not available locally.
We receive 20% discount off of retail prices, excluding any sale items or volume discounts.
Shop at http://www.grasslandbeef.com/ and please have orders to me by Wed., Oct. 17 (tomorrow!).
Bareville Creamery:
Sale on summer butter ($8/tub; not as dark as fall butter); fall butter ($9/tub); we can order now for spring butter (no price yet, but last year hay-fed was $8 and grass-fed was $9), so be thinking about what you'd like for the spring pre-order.
Please let me know how many of summer and fall butter you would like by Fri., Oct. 19.
Miller's Organic Farm:
They carry many products not available locally: some specialty items, such as crispy nuts (soaked & roasted) and potato chips cooked in lard, as well as soy-free eggs, a variety of cheeses, heavy cream, and more.
Shop at http://www.myhealthyfoodclub.com/assets/images/Docs/farm-food-price-list.pdf and please have orders to me by Tues., Oct. 23.
These orders should arrive and be ready to pick up between Thurs., Oct. 25 and Sat., Oct. 27; people ordering will be notified as dates become clearer.
A few other orders will be developing in the next few weeks: Radiant Life (http://www.radiantlifecatalog.com/; free shipping & tiered volume pricing), Happy Herbalist (http://www.happyherbalist.com/; group pricing), and Regional Access (http://regionalaccess.net/). I'm also looking into an olive oil order.
Over the next several weeks I will be making the transition from casual group ordering every now and then to an official buying club based on Weston A. Price principles. The goals of this buying club include facilitating consumers' access to nutrient-dense (and whenever possible, local) foods; facilitating farmers' access to consumers; and saving money for all involved. In the future I hope to offer one-stop shopping for fresh produce, clean meats, dairy products and eggs, fermented vegetables and drinks, traditionally made breads, and more. I will be limiting membership to fewer than 25 families at first, so if you're interested, make sure you let me know.
I don't want to abuse my membership on this list with self-promotion, so I will not be posting again about the club, but I wanted to let you know about the orders currently underway, as well as a heads-up regarding the opportunity of a buying club, which would potentially be of interest to many on this list.
Thank you!
