A new banana basket!

Hi all,

We have a new hanging fruit basket put up just under the shelf for the bananas. This will make them accessible unless, of course, people want those specific bananas which are the hardest to reach!!

Now selling “upcycled” Renewal Mills baking products (bulk)

Renewal Mills products are upcycled: They are made with “okara”, the leftover soybean pulp from tofu production that would otherwise have been wasted. It reduces food waste and its environmental impacts, while allowing from delicious recipes, high in protein and fiber:

  • 1-to-1 gluten-free flour: Can substitute wheat flour in any recipe (1 cup= 1 cup).
  • Black Chocolate Brownie Mix: Just add vegetable oil and water to bake a delicious vegan, gluten-free cake.
