Part of the Georgian Bay Folk Society's commitment to the people and environment of our region is its celebration of local food at Summerfolk. Enjoy the work of local cooks and community organizations in the food village and look for delicious offerings from our local producers in the General Store to take home. At1:30 on Sunday in the food village, look for Hoots and Hellmouth's contribution to "radical localism".
Meanwhile, back at the store...
"A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou singing in the wilderness.." If this is more the way you enjoy your music, we have most of what you need for such a romantic picnic.
Fresh bread comes every day, and the ciabata buns are especially good picnic food. We carry a range of Millbank cheeses including the popular organic cheddar with sundried tomato and garlic. Goat chevre - a fresh spreadable cheese - is available in plain, dill and garlic flowers in sunflower oil. Feta in olive oil and herbs is wonderful on its own or as a dressing for salad. Summer sausage or smoked tuna all make great sandwiches - try them with Ken's "Goop" and you'll never go back to plain mayonnaise.
Visit Coffin Ridge winery for that part of the poetry,
then take your "thou" of choice by the hand and off you go.
Beans, peas, cucumbers, red potatoes, red and yellow tomatoes, lettuce mix, cabbage, zucchini - early apples, late black raspberries and apricots are all coming in from the garden this week.
Look on the jam and condiment shelves and see what Trudy and Laura have been doing with the fruits of the season. Spicy strawberry sauce, chunky steak sauce, blueberry sauce and several delicious things with cranberry.
Please ask if there is something you'd like to see in the store and I'll try my best to find it for you, and call if you want me to put your favourite away for you.
Around the Sound is open Thursday and Friday from 10 until 7 and Saturday 10 until 4 at 972 1st Avenue West, and remember, there is free parking round back.
See you soon.
