Good morning!
We're very excited to announce our upcoming 8th Annual Local Island Showcase! Taking place on Thursday, July 6th from 10am-2pm right here at the store, it's an opportunity for you to come and meet many of the local vendors that supply us with a plethora of delicious and unique products! You'll also get to sample many of their edibles as well as receive great deals on them because they'll all be feature priced while the Showcase is on. There will be give-aways, prizes and Daisy the Island Farms mascot will be on hand for the kids! Don't miss this super popular annual event that had over 700 people attend last year and even more are expected this year!
Chances are you have a box of baking soda in the fridge to keep things fresh. Maybe it's been in there a little longer than the recommended one month. Or maybe it's been a lot longer than that. Either way, if you're in need of a fresh box, why not try something new that lasts 6X longer? Ecotech by Aircoal has a brand new fridge deodorizer that's made from coconut shell charcoal!
FridgePLUS is nature's other fridge deodorizer. You'll love that it really works for 6 whole months like 6 boxes of baking soda! PLUS, FridgePLUS will help keep your veggies longer!
Toss 1 of the 2 pouches into your crisper drawer to capture the natural ethylene off-gassing of your veggies that lead them to look a little tired quicker. Now they'll stay crisper longer!
The other pouch stays in the flow through box to sit on your upper shelf looking much like the box you're used to. After 6 months, cut open each pouch and release the naturally derived coconut shell charcoals into your indoor composting bin or directly into any soil. It's called Biochar and it's a great soil enhancer!
Kefir (pronounced ke-FEER or ka-FEER) is an intensely probiotic food and it's gaining popularity in a huge way just as kombucha has of late. There is a lot that can be written about the known health benefits of kefir and also how it differs from yogurt (we'll leave it up to you to do your own research but just know that there is a BIG difference!). Pepper's is happy to offer numerous choices for those who wish to purchase it, but now we offer another option: you can make your own kefir using Yogourmet Kefir Starter! You don't need any special appliances like when you make yogurt. All you need is a pot, some milk, a thermometer and a stove. And chances are you have most of that already. Make 6 litres of your own kefir with this product that contains four types of active bacterial culture!
That's all for now. We'd like to wish all the dads out there a very Happy Father's Day when it rolls around on Sunday the 18th! Take care until next week!
