If you are not on the San Juan Island Food Co-Op Newsletter emailing list, I encourage you to sign up. Not only will it tell you what is fresh and available in the Co-Op store, (there is always something new) but this gem of a newsletter features short informative articles like, Eat Weeds, “Always local, always fresh, always seasonal”. The January 11 edition, featured these photos of the new baby lambs at Mitchell Bay Farm.

The lambs are early, “Ooops! The rams were brawling and broke through the gate in early July. They had a quick party with the ewes, and now Colleen has lambs in January!” It may still be winter but these brave little lambs are a sure sign that Spring will eventually return. One little lamb was so cold that a warm and stylish sweater was provided.

To sign up for the SJI Food Co-Op newsletter email the Co-Op at: [sanjuancoop @ gmail . com]
