Coltsfoot, a sign of Spring and a reminder to nourish the lungs and to support respiratory issues, dry coughs, and sore throats. Take the fresh flower and make a fresh plant tea. Inhale and drink the warmth. Interesting fact, Coltsfoot flowers bloom before the leaves arrive. After the flower heads falls off, the leaves grow to be enormous, and you would never know it started with a beautiful yellow flower. 🌼

About to have fun with mica powders!!

UPDATE FOOD BANK DONATIONS- We are up to $17,000 in donations in just 5 days. Can we make it to $20,000 in the next 24 hours? We are accepting donations until Saturday evening. Any late donations will still be used for the food bank.

We have leveraged our buying power to secure extra discounts on staples so that we may create “baskets” of non-perishable items so that pantries will have provisions ready for families in need. Each basket will contain the following items:

66 Ounce Can of Tuna Fish
2 Loaves of Bread
5 Pounds Peanut Butter
32 Ounce Canola Oil
5 Pounds Flour
1 Pound Sugar
4 Pounds Pasta
2 Jars Pasta Sauce
5 Pounds Rice
5 Pounds Black Beans
5 Pounds Oatmeal
1 Pound Raisins

Each basket will cost a little under $50 to purchase the materials. We are seeking donations to enable us to provide as many baskets as possible.

HOW TO HELP: Donate funds. Drop off checks to Good Cheap Food with food bank in memo, or use cash or use a credit card at the store. 100% of all funds will be used to purchase materials. Or Venmo -Shaw-1, last 4 digits of phone number is 4834.

VOLUNTEER TIME: If you would like to help us assemble baskets on November 22 & 23, please email [email protected]. Details to come about time and location.

PLEASE SHARE: Help us get the word out. Can you share to your email list, your friend group, on Facebook, with your church, or at the office? Anything you can do to get the word out this week will increase the number of baskets we can provide.

Thank you. We are humbled and grateful for your support, and love our community so much.
