Dear Friends,
Spring is a great time to reinforce our healthy ideals, and who better to help us do that but our own member, Emrys Tetu, who is a Holistic Health Practitioner, wellness chef and yoga instructor. So we've profiled her. Along with that, we have an upcoming health lecture to tell you about.
This weekend promises to be a big one at our Co-Op. We'll be celebrating our 2nd anniversary and holding our annual members' meeting. With that in mind, please enjoy the coupon at the end of this newsletter, in honor of hitting our two-year mark. We love all of the involvement we've seen these past two years, and the sense of community that is really coming together. Let's keep it going and continue to grow!

A Look at Wellness with Emrys
By Kirsten Carbone
Emrys Tetu, a Holistic Health Counselor, chef and yoga teacher, not only emanates healthy living, she has been a member and a part of the Local Beet community since its start. We love that in her counseling practice, Emrys likes to work preventively, but she also counsels reparatively to help clients address challenges and repair issues that are already out of balance.
For a look at Emrys' approach to wellness and a super healthy spring recipe she gave us to share with readers, click here.
