Here’s a peak at some of what will be in our baskets next week! Purple potatoes, white fingerlings, and an assortment of small squashes!

The blueberry jams and products we carry from Delices du Lac-Saint-Jean are certified organic by Quebec VRAI.

This week we’ve included gorgeous large bright pink radishes from Ferme la Rosée in our fruit and vegetable boxes.

Instead of slicing them up and tossing them in a salad, we tried heating them up in a curry last week. If you’re feeling adventurous and the hot weather relents, give it a try! 

This recipe is close to what we whipped together. To offset the tangy-ness of the radish, sweeten the curry up a little by dicing a couple of the vine tomatoes in your box, toss them in and let them cook down.

Our website is up and running where you can place your order for…

• boxes of organic fruits and vegetables,
• fresh organic artisan bread made by local bakers,
• fresh roasted organic, fair trade coffee,
• and more…

Our inaugural delivery run will be next week. Ordering deadline is Tuesday, June 5th at 1pm. Visit our website to read…

• where and when we deliver,
• what’s inside next weeks boxes, and
• answers to frequently asked questions.

We look forward to delivering to you soon!

We will be at the Thinking Green Energy & Transportation Show this weekend at Lansdowne Park.

We’ll be around in the morning on Saturday and Sunday to answer questions about Ottawa Organics and Natural Foods delivery service. We’ll be sharing a booth with our friends from EnviroCurb. I hope you’ll be able to stop by and say hello.

Thanks to everyone who has responded and expressed interest in Ottawa Organics & Natural Foods. We made lots of progress this week, including moving into our little warehouse in Centretown.

We’re looking forward to becoming a hub of organic and locally produced food. We’re hoping to be ready to start accepting orders for our organic vegetable and fruit boxes, locally baked bread, organic milk and dairy, and more in May.

Is there something on your wishlist that you think we should carry? Or do you know is a grower or producer that we should talk to? Let us know by leaving a comment or sending an email!
