CARROT SEASON COMES TO ITS GLORIOUS CONCLUSION... MORE TO LOOK FORWARD TO OCTOBER 2019!

During the fall and early winter we are able to get carrots from Schwebach Farm in Moriarty through La Montanita Coop Distribution Center. This is a connection that we are so grateful for year after year. This year in particular we have received an outpouring of positive feedback from our members about the carrots from Schwebach Farm - namely that they're sweet and super flavorful. Carrots sweetness is at its peak in the fall because the colder temperatures converts the natural starches to sugar. It's a bittersweet moment as we offer the last of the winter carrot harvest. The carrots in this week's distribution are the last carrots from the 2018 winter harvest at Schwebach, but we have confirmation they will be back in October of this year!
One of the perks of sourcing locally is getting familiar with the offerings of each season. We've heard that some of you got pretty creative with your carrots to keep it exciting each week. We're looking forward to another growing season and seeing more of everyone's summer favorites in just a few short months.

MOGRO IS MOVING OFFICES                                                                            ROADRUNNER FOOD BANK PICKUP LOCATION CLOSING...

For the past year and a half Roadrunner Food Bank has been kind enough to let us rent office and cooler space and allow us to start a pickup location here. We have been so grateful. They are expanding their operations and need office space for their staff so we have offered to move our office elsewhere. That means that this Wednesday, February 27th will be the last distribution at Roadrunner Food Bank. Once we are settled in our new space we hope to open a pickup location there! Thank you all for your understanding!
