Hey Friend
Is it just me, or does it seem lighter out? Lighter in
the it's feeling breezy-easy kinda way. How we savor
the delicious coolness of a slight drop in temperature
down in Central Florida! Down at Dandelion, we are
realizing that business is picking up not just because
the locals are enjoying the hints of cooler weather,
but because Canadians are escaping the freezing
cold & making their way to our doorstep via Happycow. The more
the merrier, eh?
Another good reason to get out this weekend are
some of the fun events we have planned, including
an Herb Fest & outdoor film on Saturday and a benefit concert on Sunday. Not to mention
the Shockley Supper's we've got planned for
Fri & Sat Night. (See below for more info)
Sustainably yours,
Julie & the Dandelion Tribe

 Last week, Chris
& I attended a natural products conference with
aisle's of organic, vegan, sustainable products. We
sipped Mate out of David's
personal gourd, tried on awesome shoes, bought a rad
hemp hat, ate the best raw
brownie EVER, listened to this righteous lady talk
about Grub and chatted it up with the
folks behind Organic
Racing.
While there, we supported this independent B&B and
sipped homemade chai with Nam & Carmen - our
vegetarian hosts. Then, we feasted at Great Sage, an organic veggie
restaurant serving absolutely delicious seasonal food.
Ahhhhh, such is the life of the eco-entrepreneur. In all
seriousness, we discovered some really great
products that we will be introducing to you over the
next couple of months...some which we think are too
good to be true. Keep a watchful eye on our website
for these new offerings.

Ya'll have been clamoring for some hot homestyle
meals around here, and we're serving it up this Friday
& Saturday night. Chef Kelly Shockley will be making
some delicious, cozy comfort food for you this
weekend. We aren't posting this on our website, just
letting those of you smart enough to join our mailing
list in on the secret.
We're still keeping the entrees a secret, so you'll just
have to stop in and see. Supper starts at 7pm & only
lasts until the supply is gone. We're starting with a
limited number of portions while we test it out, so
get here early!
