🍠 Guess what time it is?? 🍠

It's SWEET POTATO TIME!! We pulled the very first ones out of the ground today, and we are so excited! Get your orders in by the case — you are not going to want to miss these!

We're also sharing a little peek into today's harvest from the Woods, along with some cozy, calm-day food preparations happening here on the homestead. 🍂

On the menu today:

🌿 Biscuits (gluten free, organic, dairy free, sugar free) alongside Ghost Peppers, Chives and Moringa we harvested this morning for our egg scramble (along with dried tomatoes and close to the last of our green beans).

🎃 Delicata squash, baked and then sautéed with cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg

🧅 And yes... we are STILL preparing leeks and slicing up the last of our watermelon! Honestly the best leek harvest we've ever had — we can hardly believe it!

Lots of goodness happening around here today. Delicious Sweet Potato creations will be on the way!! 💛

🌱 What Azure Standard Means to Us 🌱

At The Twisted Root, our heart has always been supporting local first. When a product is available from a local producer, that's always our first choice. But when it's not, we work hard to find clean, healthy, organic, and other natural foods another way — and to source them at the lowest possible cost so more money stays in the pockets of Fentress County families.

That's where Azure Standard comes in. It gives us access to high-quality organic and natural products that simply aren't available locally, without sacrificing the values we've built our business on.

For anyone new to our local co-op — which is made up of many, many local individuals just like you — welcome! We're so glad you're here. 💛

⏰ Quick reminder: the cutoff for ordering for this upcoming delivery period is only 3 days away!

Jump on Azure's website and check out what they have to offer and order directly through them, just sign up for our local delivery with The Twisted Root!

Got questions? Drop them in the comments or send us a PM — we're happy to help!

See you in a couple weeks at pickup on the corner of 127 and Taylor Place Road!!

For 30+ years, family-owned selling natural, non-GMO and organic foods and products. Bulk sizes, too. Orders delivered to your doorstep or to one of 3,000 community pickup locations across the USA.

🌾 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐳𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐝? 🌾

Since 1987, Azure Standard has been a family-owned, nationwide food co-op sourcing high-quality, organic, and non-GMO groceries. They ship organic foods, fresh produce, pantry staples, personal care items, homesteading supplies and so much more across the country via their own fleet of trucks — right to drop locations near you!

And guess what?? Right here in Jamestown, TN, The Twisted Root hosts an Azure Standard drop! 🚛📦

This ties right into how we do business: we trade, buy and source locally produced products and services whenever they're available, and when they're not, we source the healthiest, highest-quality products as close to the producer as possible.

Why does that matter? 💛
✅ More money stays right here in Fentress County
✅ More money stays in YOUR pocket
✅ You get access to incredible bulk, organic, non-GMO products without having to drive hours to get them

Supporting local first, and sourcing smart when local isn't an option — that's the goal! Come check out what Azure Standard has to offer at our drop. 🌱
