My dear Community,
I’m late with this post as I’ve had quite the reminder of how attached to my phone my world is. I left it on top of my friend’s car yesterday, and as I watched it fly off the side of the 154 freeway I had to take a few deep breaths and trust that everyone would understand. Maybe perhaps it’s also a reminder of how important it is to unplug from time to time.
We included a taste of the Organic Seeded Sourdough bread that we offer from Bunkhouse Bread on San Julian Ranch. We’ve had a great response. There’s still a few loaves left in the store this week but be sure to subscribe if you want a guaranteed loaf weekly or every other week with your share.
Be good to each other.
