Trish Kurnik is a Longmont neighbor and friend of ours, who in 2005, was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. She had to learn how to cook, bake and live without gluten. But she was up to the challenge, and not only felt 500% better after 2 gluten-free weeks, but laid the foundation for later launching into her handmade, artisan cracker business – Beat Foods. These crackers are fabulous!
Based on quinoa flour (complete protein, packed with fiber and gluten-free), New Beat crackers are thin and crispy, local, organic, nutritious, gluten-free, versatile and absolutely delicious! We are offering their Sesame Swing, Trio, and Play it Straight flavors.
Paula Breymeier has been keeping bees in Boulder County for eleven years. Her father was a beekeeper and she learned from him. Her hives are currently located out by Rte. 287 between Isabelle and Jasper, a rich agricultural area with alfalfa, open space wildflowers and Russian olive trees. Paula’s delicious honey is amber in color with the sweet clean flavors of our Colorado fields. It has a clean and creamy taste with notes of cinnamon and wildflowers. The honey is natural, raw and unheated so its rich flavor, allergenic and antibiotic properties are retained. Perfect to sweeten your tea or use on your toast. And a spoonful a day is a great way to reduce your local seasonal allergies!
Tasting samples are available. We have 22 oz. pints as well as half and quarter pints available. Since this is a seasonal product, stock up for the year. Honey never goes bad (2,000-year-old honey was found in the Egyptian pyramids and was still good!). However, over time it will crystalize. You can re-liquify the honey in a warm bath of water that is not over 125 degrees without compromising its beneficial health properties.
Full disclosure: Paula is a member of our family, mother of our precious niece, grandma of our adorable grand nephew!
This year, because of the timing of our Holiday Market, we are unable to bring you Robin’s wonderful, locally-crafted chocolate truffles (they might not stay fresh all the way to Christmas).

Seed Ranch Flavors is a small ‘farm to bottle’ small-batch maker of ‘hot’ sauces (one is very mild) in Boulder, the passion of David Delcourt. David uses only non-gmo, gluten-free, organic, natural plant-based ingredients, and his unique, savory sauces are paleo and vegan-friendly.
What really caught our attention was the delicious originality and complexity of the blended flavors, and their versatility – not just for tortilla chips, but in dips, for marinating, glazing or barbecue too!
We carry their amazing new Truffle Hound sauce in its own gift-box, as well as four flavors packaged together in an attractive box. These make great hostess gifts, stocking-stuffers, or components of an all-local specialty food basket!
