This Saturday and for the next few weeks Katrina will be providing Sultan Salatin’s Humus (Roasted Red Pepper, Original, & Original with Jalapeño) made from fresh, local peppers. The peppers are from Radell Schrock’s farm, Season’s Bounty, down on route 42. In order to provide the fresh, local ingredients in A Bowl of Good products, it means elbow grease and more expenses. “Buy Local, Buy Fresh” is a great slogan but it flat-out means it is a little harder getting the product you want to you. It would be infinitely easier and cheaper to buy a couple cans from XXXXX, a very LARGE food distributor right outside of town. But that’s not what we want and that’s not what you want.

This is no pity-party because it brings us all great joy to see you, the consumer, happy and healthier and it feels safer knowing that Radell grew the food instead of a mystery-Chinese-factory-farm. We are proud and happy that you visit our stand and buy our products. We just thought it might be nice for you to know a little of what goes into providing you A Bowl of Good products.

Tomorrow we’ll be providing roasted red pepper hummus made from the peppers seen below.
