Words of Wellness: Fun in the Sun
As we start to see less rain and more sun, most of us will desperately need sunscreen to keep from burning. Here are my top three favorite Wellness products for fun in the sun!
Sweet & Savory: Apple Sauce Cookies
Sometimes you want a piece of cake, but you only want a single piece and not the whole thing (I know, I know – blasphemous of me to assume such a thing could happen.) I find that tiny little cakey cookies often do the trick for me, especially as they’re not traditionally my kind of cake or cookie - and they’re easy to hand the remainders out to other hungry folx if you know you won’t eat them all.

Sweet & Savory: Cardamom Palmiers
We’ve hit the windy rainy season, where nothing quite satisfies like a warm beverage under a blanket by the window with your dog curled up on your feet, listening to the rain hit the panes while you make your way through your latest book (me!) Or, maybe this sort of setup isn’t quite your vibe: you’re the one who straps on your wellies, grabs every tool and bucket you own, and you head out into the elements to turn your flower beds, trim the trees, and get your bulbs planted for the year (lookin’ at you, ma.)
NCG Partners with CDF’s Disaster Recovery Fund to aid Ukrainian Co-ops
Ukraine’s cooperative businesses and members are at risk as Russia’s invasion of the country continues. In a show of solidarity, National Co+op Grocers (NCG) has partnered with the Cooperative Development Foundation (CDF) and NCBA CLUSA to launch a fundraising drive to support the Ukrainian cooperative community’s immediate and ongoing needs during this time.
Words of Wellness : Host Defense
Most of us who live in western Washington have at least a passing interest in mushrooms, but for Ohio transplant Paul Stamets they are a fascinating solution to many of life’s problems. Paul started Fungi Perfecti in 1980 as a resource for fellow mushroom enthusiasts and sold guide books and supplies for growing and foraging mushrooms.
Sweet & Savory: Olive Oil Cake
Remember in the fall of 2019 when time spent in the kitchen was just the food space in your house, before it became your second bedroom? The one where you spent (and let’s face it, probably still spend) hours a day standing in front of your open fridge shoveling snacks into your mouth to pass the time? When we were all quarantined in our homes for quite a while? The boredom of it all?
Words of Wellness: Moon Valley Organics
In 1998 a couple named Aaron and Kim Otto took their first steps towards making their dream of an organic and sustainable skincare line come true; with a few quality homemade products, Moon Valley was born.
