Major fall vibes in the produce line up this week (winter squash, sweet potatoes, root veggies, more persimmons, apples and roselle, plus bok choy, salad greens, microgreens and more), plus restocked beef, pork and goat meat, amazing cheeses, hummus, tofu, yogurts, eggs, jams and jellies and lots more.

We changed our schedule to this week because of a trip later this week, so we’ll be at our Bywater Hub at Parleaux B**r Lab tomorrow instead of Thursday!

Our Algiers Point Hub will be on Wednesday as usual, then we’ll do home deliveries earlier in the afternoon in Lakeview, Mid-City and Gentilly on Thursday and we’ll do our Downtown through Uptown, Old Jefferson and Old Metairie delivery route on Saturday versus Friday this week!

We’ll be open in Metairie all week (well, our usual Tuesday-Saturday) as usual, too! Hope to see you!

It’s really looking like fall now in the local grocery spread! Persimmons, apples, roselle, sweet potatoes, greens and more in now and more winter squashes and root veggies coming tomorrow, too!

Thank you for keeping us so busy last week! Thought we were going to be a little slower yesterday and then we had a slew of customers all afternoon and evening. ☺️

We’re open in Metairie today through Saturday and we have farm hubs in Mandeville, Covington and Irish Channel and home deliveries in surrounding neighborhoods, as well as in Lakeview, Mid-City and Gentilly.

Hope to see you this week! 🙏🤩

It was certainly gusty this afternoon, but we’re so glad to have been open today rather than hunkered down for a hurricane!

Sending all the good vibes to Alabama and the Florida panhandle and we’ll see you tomorrow for one more day of local groceries this week!

10/08/2026

That feeling when you thought you were going to have to do a bunch of hurricane prep and now (knock on wood) you don’t?

It’s practice is cancelled vibes with a big sigh of relief!

So now apparently we can just resume our normal plans for the week, which includes tons of gorgeous local food!

Faust Farms is harvesting fall tomatoes, eggplant and peppers and we got some fun greens (Toyko bekana and broccoli rabe for braising, plus little gem lettuce, arugula and pea shoots) from River Queen Greens.

Of course, don’t miss the new Local Cooling Farms goat sausages and restocked beef and goat cuts, the graNOLA restock, fresh dairy, apples, mushrooms, head lettuces, eggs and more either!

There’s still time to get your orders in for:

*️⃣ Our biweekly Bywater farm hub at Parleaux B**r Lab this evening, 5-6 pm. Home deliveries in surrounding neighborhoods beforehand, too.

*️⃣ Our weekly home delivery route in parts of Metairie, Lakeview, Mid-City and Gentilly this afternoon.

*️⃣ Our other weekly delivery route in parts of Downtown through Uptown, Broadmoor, Carrollton, Old Jefferson and Old Metairie tomorrow afternoon.

Or you can place an order to pick up at the store in Metairie, or come shop in person.

Hope to see you! We can collectively unclench together! 😅

10/07/2026

Our Local Cooling Farms grass-fed, grass-finished beef is restocked!

And our wild-foraged goat meat is restocked, too, along with a bunch of new goat sausages including Greek gyro, jalapeno, chorizo and Italian links.

Do I look happy (and proud) in this picture? Yes!

Did I also literally cry while putting all the individually packaged goat hearts in the freezer? Also yes. 😩

Raising livestock is a trip, y’all. It’s worth it, but it’s also bittersweet and involves some level of grief and mourning along with the pride and satisfaction and gratitude.

We are certainly keeping our eyes on Tropical Storm Isaias and will tuck everything back in the generator backed up freezer warehouse tomorrow or Friday if we must! But the forecast is looking better and better for us and for now, we’re fully operational at the shop in Metairie this week and for our usual hubs and home delivery routes. 🙏

Whether it’s before or after the storm, plan to get you some beef and goat meat! 🥩
