Plantains are a sweet vegetable in the banana family, delicious baked or fried. These are particularly sweet.

Today we have LOTS of yummy salad options: young arugula (teen, baby), spicy salad mix, and microgreens! For healthy veggies and herbs, we’ve got asian water spinach, breadfruit, chives, basil, and lemongrass. To round out your vitamin intake we have jackfruit, mangoes, crazy sweet and yummy plantains, and eggfruit. Also back in action: a full range of Sweetface chocolate flavors including new ginger chili flavor, Feel I’s ice cream, local honey, and fresh local eggs.
