2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger root (use a microplane grater)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne
2 tablespoonsTamari soy sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Market News
Hello!
We hope you are all able to enjoy this beautiful spring we are having! There have been a few freeze scares over the weekend, but thankfully all the crops pulled through with no damage. The strawberries are flowering and setting fruit, and those were our biggest concern. However, never fear! All is well!
We will be continuing our every other week delivery schedule through April, until the first strawberries appear. Please keep this in mind as you order, and stock up on eggs, frozen items, and good greens!
We have a lot of lettuce this week, so think delicious salads for lunch and dinner!
The Bloomy Rind Cheese shop has a great selection of items this week! The sheep’s milk butter is a great treat to try on some Dozen Bakery fresh baked bread, along with some yummy radishes and a sprinkling of salt!~
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday! Thank you so much for all your support!
John and Tallahassee
