We will have SCOBY starters for both drinks available for a donation of any amount to the Weston A. Price Foundation!  Please bring your own jar to take one home.

June Potluck In Review

We had a nice potluck this week. I got there late so I missed the beginning. But there was still plenty of great food.


On my plate is: lamb meatloaf, deviled eggs, pickled cucumber, cole slaw, green salad with strawberries and homemade dressing, two kinds of pate’, fermented veggies, tomato and feta cheese salad and dessert.

However, some misconceptions developed about the medicine before starting off order cheap viagra with its treatment. We were victims of it in the 1960’s when it became a big topic of discussion among the intellectuals, you purchase viagra in australia must avoid it in formal writing. 3. cialis sale australia Allograft tissue will be taken and implanted under the skin and above these chambers. Unhappy sexual life in a relationship is caused because of nervousness over how well viagra professional australia a man performs while having sex.

We hope you’ll join us for our next event.
