A little excitement at the Cannery today, one of our hives decided it was time to swarm! 🐝

Swarming is a natural part of the honeybee life cycle, when part of the colony leaves with a queen to start a new home. While it may look dramatic, honeybees in a swarm are usually very gentle while they’re focused on protecting their queen.

Nature never stops amazing us, and we’re grateful to have a front-row seat to these busy little pollinators at work. 💛

Congratulations to our neighbor up the road! Leaves for Wildlife is a great place to find your landscaping needs.

Native plants are the natural choice for low-maintenance, healthy gardens that work with nature instead of against it. These nurseries can help you start restoring your own little patch of the planet. Our favorites include Sow Wild Natives in Kansas City, Missouri, and Native Roots Nursery in South....

There’s something pretty amazing about taking fresh food and turning it into something shelf-stable, lightweight, and just as delicious. Freeze drying lets you lock in flavor, color, and nutrients. It's perfect for snacks, storage, or a little everyday convenience.

We’ve been having so much fun experimenting, and we’re excited to share that a new freeze drying class is coming soon! Stay tuned for details, you won’t want to miss this one.

Look what’s growing at the Cannery 🍒

Our young cherry tree is getting ready to do something special! This will be its very first year bearing fruit! There’s something magical about watching it grow and knowing those first cherries are just around the corner.

From tiny blossoms to sweet rewards, we can’t wait to share the harvest with you. 🌸🍒

Happy National Pita Day! 🫓
There’s something so satisfying about warm, homemade pita - soft, pillowy, and perfect for dipping, stuffing, or tearing right off the tray.
Want to try making your own at home? Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

✨ Homemade Pita Bread
• 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
• 1 ¼ cups warm water
• 1 tsp sugar
• 3 cups flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let sit for about 5–10 minutes until foamy.
Add flour, salt, and olive oil. Mix and knead until smooth (about 8–10 minutes).
Let dough rise in a covered bowl for 1–2 hours, until doubled.
Divide into small balls and roll into circles about ¼ inch thick.
Bake at 475°F for 5–7 minutes until puffed and lightly golden.
Serve warm and enjoy!
