The Boulder Cornucopia of Local..... and looming national pumpkin pie shortage.


The Boulder County Farmers' Markets are anchoring this year's "Cornucopia of Local" event at the Boulder Outlook Hotel. In addition to the Farmers' Market, there will be presentations throughout the day on the various aspects of local economics, permaculture, urban gardening and relocalization. The directions to the hotel are here:
R.A.S. will be setup outside the main building and we will have-
onions
garlic
beets
Long pie pumpkins ( a really nice heirloom variety.)
We will also have a FULL soap selection for Winter stock up and Holiday gifts-
Lavender
Rocky Mountain
Oatmeal
Mint
Empress
Speaking on pumpkins......... the news is reporting a national shortage of canned pie pumpkin (at least from conventional supplies). Please consider making pies from local, fresh supplies. Our Long pie pumpkins are perfect for pies, although they are NOT super sweet. Plan on using some honey or something similar to make the pies sweet. Long pie is a good keeper, so stock up now and you can get through the Thanksgiving Holiday easily.
InI give thanks for all of the support this season from all of InI friends and family... near and far.
