"From the staple foods we eat daily, to the special occasion treats we fondly cherish, food carries significant cultural weight for most people. What might happen to us, to our culture, to our stories, when some of those foods disappear?

In her book Endangered Eating, culinary historian and journalist Sarah Lohman tackles that question. Guided by the Ark of Taste, a list created by Slow Food International, Lohman travels the United States from coast to coast, to taste for herself some of these culturally significant foods that are in danger of fading away."

Local Producer Spotlight!
Piece & Freedom Bakery, Ames, IA.

This week, the co-op started carrying breads baked locally by Piece and Freedom Bakery to complement our house-baked bread selection. These include French Country Rounds, Gouda & Green Onion Sourdough, and Buckwheat Sourdough. They will be delivering loaves twice a week, so look for their breads on the bakery shelves.

At the co-op we love connecting our members and shoppers with the people behind the food they enjoy, so we asked Shalika of Piece & Freedom to share stories, traditions, and the care that is baked into every local loaf and pastry.

This local nonprofit that provides free meals and groceries to anyone who is hungry, no questions asked. serves a hot meal every day of the year. In fact, they haven’t missed a meal in over 21 years! Almost all of the food comes from donations and rescued surplus from grocery stores, restaurants, and ISU, helping both people and the planet by reducing food waste.
