Have you discovered the new products at Schoch Dairy? Known for its raw milk and yogurts, their products have expanded to cheeses (including a phenomenal blue cheese!) and a new cultured raw butter. You’ll immediately notice a richer flavor to this locally made butter compared to ‘grocery store’ butter.

How’s your Mojo? We can think of one way to improve it!
Micro greens offer a concentrated dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Despite their tiny size, they are packed with flavor and contain nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin K, and beta-carotene.
Rold Farms Mojo micro greens are great added to sandwiches, tacos, smoothies, or dressed for a light salad.

Ahmed from Zena Foods offers an awesome selection of spreads and condiments, perfect for weekend entertaining, appetizers, or simply to jazz up an ordinary meal. And don’t forget the pita bread—it’s soooooo good. Just heat briefly on a griddle or skillet, and brush with a little butter when serving.
