Sorry Sauce Farm to table, micro batch hot sauce done Canadian style with a free apology in every bottle. We'll have a bunch of cool hot sauces available at any given time.

I grow the peppers, tomatoes and ground cherries in the Garden of Apologies and most of the other ingredients come from the farms around us. The garlic and extra dark maple syrup come from a farm about a kilometre up the road ! Nina and I are punk rock, hippy vegans ourselves, so I grow and craft the punk rock, hippy vegan way using mostly hand tools for a low carbon footprint, and using compost and hard work instead of chemical fertilizers or pesticides. I know I don't really want to eat produce that's covered in shellac and chemicals, so I don't use any in Sorry Sauce. We have a regular set of recipes that we like to make, and there are always some new recipes around also. We've got your hot sauce, but we also have your hot pepper powder, hot maple syrup, and sometimes hot candies. If we can think of something that would be good with hot peppers in it, we'll do it! The only thing you can really expect from us is quality! Please have a look at www.sorrysauce.ca to see what we've got goin' on.

Last week, the Garden of Apologies was full of praying mantises. I found 40 of them as I was prepping for the Heating up the Capital expo.

This week, I've been finding egg sacs around, so I've been gathering them up and putting them safely in the Greenhouse of Extreme Regret for next year.

Praying mantises are great garden militia. I'm quite happy to have them around clearing out the bad bugs.

Here's a friendly reminder that I'm at the Ancaster Fair from Thursday to Sunday this weekend, and I'm sponsoring the Hot AF pepper eating contest at noon on Saturday. It'll be your first chance to taste my own exclusive Marbles Weird Pink pepper!

Also, October 3 is Goat Fest in Kitchener. I have 2 free passes to give away! They're good for the full day, so you can get your fill of hot sauce before we move to the craft b**r and live music half of the day.

Please contact me if you're interested. First come, first serve!

Verd-eh! is ready!

Sorry Sauces are often long projects, and my new verde sauce is no exception. It started last July when I added 144 Serrano plants to my seedling order coordinated by the local Mennonite community.

The planning escalated this spring when I planted a dozen tomatillo plants, but it all came to fruition last week.

I roasted the tomatillos, Serranos and some red onions, then paired that with fresh peaches, limes and garlic from Elam's farm down the road for a sauce that starts with a crisp fruitiness and finishes with a mild slap of heat.

I'm sure it'll be great on tacos, but I keep eating it off a spoon.

I sold the first bottle tonight at , but it gets its official launch on Saturday at in Ottawa.

Here's a quick reminder that I'll be away from the Guelph Farmers' Market for the next 3 weekends 'cause I'm travelling to other events.

Saturday, September 19 is Heating up the Capital in Ottawa, so if you're in that area, I'll see you at Smokie Ridge Vineyards for the best party of the year.

Thursday, September 24 to Sunday, September 27 is the Ancaster Fair, and I'm the lead sponsor of this year's Hot AF contest to be held on Saturday. Come on down to eat some peppers from The Garden of Apologies, including my exclusive Marbles Weird Pink pepper. It'll be a series of unusual peppers including Lightning Peach Habanero, Puerto Rican Yellow Habanero, Thai Rawit and White Naga for a different kind of pepper eating contest.

Saturday, October 3 is Goat Fest at Kitchener's Concordia Centre. We start off with a hot sauce expo, and end up with a craft b**r expo with live music. Come early to get your hot sauce, then stick around for the official keg tapping for Oktoberfest.

I'll be back in Guelph on Saturday, October 10 at my indoor booth for the winter. It's been a great summer outside, but harvest season moves me back inside to the hot sauce hut.

If you miss me and you're up for the 10 minute drive from Guelph to Rockwood, I'll be at the The Rockwood Farmers' Market on Wednesday, September 16 and Wednesday, September 30.

Thanks for everything, and I'll see you somewhere!

Blue Christmas x Candlelight Mutant plant for attention.
