Fiddleheads and requests for help

Fresh Fiddleheads from Whirled Beet Farm at the store! Also:

• Apples from Ted Hutton
• Preserves from Hac'n Sack

Fiddleheads are an interesting local delicacy-- a forest fern that has a taste somewhat akin to Asparagus. To prepare, just cut their stems so they're as long as the coiled fern (the fiddlehead), then steam for 8-10 minutes. You can serve them with a bit of butter and/or salt (although they're nice just by themselves too).

Spring Cleaning occurred a few weeks ago, lots of things look shiny and new but there are still a few tasks left to be completed:

• Fridge and Freezer
• Two shelving units by the freezer
• Bagging area and cash area
• Shelves opposite sink
• Closed bag storage cabinet
• Open bags storage cabinet
• High shelf above the bathroom entrance
• Bathroom

If you can, do one of these during your shift, or come in to do one of these.
Remember to book your hours!

And there are a couple of specialized tasks in the computer area:

• Clean the excellent but tarnished keyboard
• A truck or van to bring a computer desk to the grainery (contact Pat), and help to rearrange the computer area.
