Creative, critical thinking customers use the Sustainable Produce Containers and Linda Borghi of New Leaf Flavors is one of them! Linda premakes her boxes before her farmer's market and attaches empty labels. 24 of the 2 Quarts will fit in her Ikea bag and she fills the boxes with her microgreens and writes in what variety the customer is buying at the point of sale. Less waste and maximum efficiency!

Had a great time exhibiting at the show last week and picked up some delicious Sh*take mushrooms from my customer Adam Lauer, owner of . The mushrooms were the perfect addition to the Swedish Meatballs that my dad cooked up while I was visiting him and family afterwards. The photograph does not do it justice, It was absolutely the best comfort food ever on a snowy February weekend! The recipe he whipped up is at the end of the slideshow - anyone else like Swedish meatballs and how does your recipe vary?

Fox News kicking it with Ken is going to be down at the Verona Vineyard this morning so we’re doing a little pop-up market to showcase some of the vendors that participate in the first and third Sunday farmers markets. Come on out this morning and see and support the market if you’re available!

We're trying to make the 1.5 Tall Quart easier to fold by hand, jig and robot, yet still be tough enough to hold heavy produce in a refrigerated environment. Here's the initial testing of a couple samples with cuts in the creases suggested by the box manufacturer. Check back soon to see how they hold up in the refrigerator. My apologies for any fumbling of the folding since I haven't folded this size in a while and was trying to monitor the camera, too. It did feel easier though to fold these samples than the ones that I'd assembled earlier that had the produce in them.
