CO-OP NEWS


 
The Weston A. Price Conference on Saturday was a huge success. Thank you to all the presenters and volunteers for their help. My favorite part was interviewing the farmers. I got a really good response from both the audience and the farmers so I would like to find a way to organize more “meet the farmer” events in the future.

From Mimi's Mountain Home
I am pleased to introduce a new vendor to the co-op. From Mimi’s Mountain Home offers all-natural, homemade cleaning products and soaps based on recipes passed down through the generations. You can read more at their website www.fmmhome.com and while you’re at it, go on over and give them a “like” on facebook www.facebook.com/MimisMountainHome

You will find their products listed in The Market under the category FRESH & LOCAL. I had an opportunity to try some samples last week and I am very impressed. They smell great and seem to work well so far. Currently available in the market is dish soap, dishwasher detergent, laundry soap, fabric softener, glass and window cleaner, multi-purpose cleaner, bath bombs, and bath salts. They are working on some new products, too, including color safe “bleach”, shower spray, shampoo bars, deer repellent, and furniture polish to name a few. Everything, of course, is all natural. Their products do not contain optical brighteners, and are not made with Zote Soap or Fels-Naptha, which are not natural soaps.

For their grand opening with the Melody Lane Co-op, From Mimi’s Mountain Homehas a special for us – Mimi’s First Market package, in your choice of scent: citrus, lavender, or rosemary mint. A 30 dollar value for only 20 dollars!


Mimi’s First Market

  • 32 loads of laundry and fabric softener
  • 1 bath bomb
  • 4 oz bath salts
