Once again, we’re offering sustainably grown trees from Oneota Slopes, a family-owned sustainable farm near Decorah, Iowa. These are never sprayed with chemicals or dyed, and we find them really beautiful.

Since they are from a sustainably managed farm, the supply can vary—and this year, we have fewer trees than usual, which are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Call 612-922-1159 TODAY to reserve your tree!

We are going to be getting several species of pines and spruce, all in the 5 1/2 to 7 1/2 foot range.

If you think cauliflower is just that white stuff, think again! We’ve got yellow, purple AND white cauliflower in the produce aisle right now. And some really fantastic-looking green romanesco—all from Gardens of Eagan. Try roasting a mixture of colorful flowerettes with a bit of olive oil, some red pepper flakes, a bit of salt and the last fresh herbs from your backyard. Or check out this great recipe for multicolored cauliflower; you’ll love it.

Well, not literally, but local sweet peppers, bell peppers, and baby sweets are definitely in season right now. Great roasted, pickled, sliced on salads, or stuffed (especially the baby sweet bells—try them with the new local hummus available across from the deli counter, or any herbed cream cheese!
