FARM TO TABLE
 September 7, 2013

Thank you to the Outer Aisle "dream" team for putting together such an awesome and well organized event.

Thirty-two folks gathered to enjoy a beautiful evening under the stars. The food was delicious from start to finish. Beginning with a tour of the garden and appetizers on the way. Stopping by the Italian store and Stage Stop for watermelon sorbet before heading out to "find" our seats with guests that before the night's end were friends.

Thank you to Willi of Milfiori for making available her beautiful grounds for this event...a magical venue!

THIS WEEK'S PRODUCE
& OFFERINGS:


     
  Sockeye Salmon is back!
An Outer Aisle favorite - the salmon comes from Bristol Bay, one of Alaska's sustainable fisheries.  Denny Thompson from Sonora is our supplier. For years he had a fishing boat out of Knack Knack and only recently at the age of 86 gave up fishing. The catch still draws him to Alaska every year and opens up his house to the younger fishermen.

SWEET RED BELL PEPPERS are in!
STILL ON SPECIAL!
 Beautiful reds, Sweet Marconi, Padron, Shishito, large Jalapenos, Purple bells and more!
