This is awesome! This is a great group of people working towards some amazing things. Be sure to bring things to barter/ trade with! Like a yard sale but exchanging things! (We’re not vending but will for sure have some pasta to trade)

This weeks good deed loan pasta went out to our friends at the Adventist Community Services Center! A great local resource for anything from clothing to non- perishables and much more. Though I highly recommend reaching out to them if you need the help, they could also use some help with resources themselves. They have an excess of clothing but are struggling with food donations, so if you’re able to give, there is definitely a need they’d like to help fulfill for the community.

We don’t love having to say this—especially with prices already where they are on everything else people have to buy—but we will need to make a small increase to our pasta prices.
This isn’t coming from a place of greed or profit-chasing. Jess and I built this with community in mind, helping to support our local producers, small businesses and to better support our community, not extraction. We keep very little for ourselves, putting most of what comes in right back into ingredients, operations, and supporting the work we do together. Our goal has always been to make an honest living providing healthier better quality options without being exploitative.
That said, the busy season is here, and to keep up we’ll need to bring on additional team members. They deserve to earn a fair, livable wage—honestly, more than Jess and I have been taking. At the same time, rising costs—especially gas, which has nearly doubled—are making it harder to sustain things as they are.
We understand this shift may mean some of you can’t stick with us at the new price point, and we respect that. If and when costs like gas come back down, our prices will reflect that decrease too.
Updated pricing:
Inside Jackson County
Handmade pasta: $16/lb (up from $14)
Flavored extruded pasta: $14/lb (up from $12)
Outside Jackson County
Handmade pasta: $17/lb (up from $16)
Flavored extruded pasta: $15/lb (up from $14)
Even with this change, our pastas will remain more affordable than comparable offerings, while continuing to deliver the quality, flavor, and aroma you’ve come to expect from us.
On a related note, we’re also introducing traditional brass die extruded pastas (What you'll find in pasta shops) at a lower price point: They don't have the added produce or eggs but are still better than anything you can get locally from a store.
$8/lb in Jackson County
$10/lb everywhere else
Thank you for being part of this with us and enduring these shared frustrations with us, we truly couldn’t do it without you.

Kilted Farmers Community Update

Jackson, we could really use your help.

A few weeks ago, we started fulfilling our Good Deed Loan by getting free pasta out into the community—and it’s been a beautiful thing to see.

Now we’re ready to take the next step.

We built a simple civic engagement app just for our community:
www.thepeoplesvoices.org

No ads. No bots. No outside noise. Just neighbors helping neighbors.

Here’s where you come in:
We need help adding local food banks, blessing boxes, and any free community resources where we can regularly stock pasta.

The goal is to use the app to:

* Map out real needs in real time
* Coordinate weekly pasta deliveries
* Keep mutual aid local and protected from outside misuse

If you know of a place that could use support, please jump on the app and add it.

This only works if we build it together.

If you don't know Liz you're missing out on one of life's great opportunities. I've known her since working at Daryls Downtown back in the early 2000's and she's a huge supporter of this community and loves Jackson. She's been the owner of The Crazy Cowboy for years and most of us have been to her live band nights at one time or another. she supports local school teams and contributes to alot of local causes. One thing I know about healing is that it's very hard to do when you're filled with stress and anxiety about your responsibilities - and she has a lot of them. so donating to this gofundme wont cure her, but it may just give her the opportunity to really rest, to really heal. without having to succumb to all the financial curveballs life likes to throw at us everyday. even if you can't donate please share, the intent helps. Liz is loved by a lot of people in Jackson and this just has to reach the right people.

Liz is an amazing mom to three boys, a loving wife to Mike, and the heart b… Kimberly Gamez needs your support for Support Liz’s Fight Against Stage 4 Cancer
