Hello Co-op Owners,
May has finally arrived! Warmer weather is finally here, and the outdoors are calling me between the rain showers!
This month brings plenty of reasons to celebrate,
including May Day, Cinco de Mayo, Mother’s Day, and Memorial Day. As we head into the season of sunshine, fresh produce, and outdoor gatherings, we’re looking forward to sharing more local favorites, seasonal flavors, and community events with all of you.
New Happenings:
It is with great sadness that we announce that our Prepared Foods Supervisor has moved on to new endeavors. We will miss her greatly and wish her all the best in her next chapter.
As we move forward, keep an eye out for exciting changes in the Prepared Foods Department! Don’t worry — your favorite baked chickens and soups are here to stay as everyday staples. We have lots of new ideas in the works to help bring the deli back to life, and we can’t wait to share them with you.
Next weekend, we’ll be introducing a brand-new kitchen item! We’ll give you a little hint… it’s something blue and only available for a short time. Stay tuned — we can’t wait for you to try it!
