Fall colors! A welcome time of year

  I just love the flavors of fall.  It's a time for comfort food a time to slow down. The winter garden is so much easier to manage.  Toss seeds in the ground and before you know it you have broc, cal and all the cabbage you could ever want.  I also get to harvest my bees, ginger and horseadish.  I also use this time to preserve pomegranates.

Organic Brown Rice...Only what Supper's On uses!

Supper's On will always use brown rice over white white in it's meals.  If you want white rice you have to select it as an option.  By default it's brown rice.  However it's not just brown it's Massa Organics!  An amazing company that started because they were tired of the poisons sprayed on our food.   They started by converting a small part of their land to organic rice production, adding a little more each year.  They built a straw bale house in 2002 out of the rice straw from the adjacent fields, and children quickly filled it.  they added the almond orchard in 2004, and proceeded to learn how to grow rice and almonds without the aid of chemicals. ...
