Our new location across from the Milwaukee Public Market has now been open for over a week and extends a very special thank you for those who have visited with us since then. We could not be happier to coexist in the 3rd Ward with the creative businesses and residents! As we support local vendors and adhere to our strict quality standards, we look forward to offering only the freshest and healthiest produce, groceries and holistic health & beauty products. Stop by in December for a free cup of organic, fairly traded coffee and share your thoughts so that we can cater the store to your needs. See you soon! Emily Tobias, Store Manager

Café Hours - Waukesha Location
After reviewing our sales and staffing needs for our café, we have made the decision to close the café at 5 pm each day. We will continue to have self serve coffee, tea, soups as well as our grab and go items, but we won't be serving sandwiches after 5. Our organic hot case will be available 11-2 Monday through Friday.

Recipe of The Month
Creamy Spinach Sage Soup - Recipe
This dairy-free delight, with delicate undertones of sage, is a wonderful way to serve up immune-enhancing, lutein-rich spinach. Low in fat and loaded with calcium, it's a super-healthy soup in disguise.
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium leek, sliced (white part only)
1 teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped, reserving a few sprigs for garnish
2 tablespoons whole-wheat flour
4 cups vegetable stock
1 pound spinach, torn into large pieces, with stems removed
18-ounce container silken low-fat tofu, cubed
Red pepper and sage for garnish
1. In a large soup-pot, heat olive oil and sauté sliced leek with salt until soft.
2. Add white pepper, sage, and flour, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
3. Slowly stir in vegetable stock. Add spinach and cook until spinach is soft.
4. Puree mixture with tofu until well-blended and creamy. Return to pan and heat through. Garnish with think slices of red pepper and additional sprigs of fresh sage.
Serves 4 to 6.
