It's going to be another great week for local groceries, as we got in so many lovely locally grown products for you late last week!

Last week, we got the only batch of A&A Acres chicken sausage of the season -- green onion or smoked gouda apple!
And we restocked ground buffalo from Bayou Sarah Farms, too.
Berry Hill brought lots more hard cheeses, soft cheeses and various flavors of Greek yogurt, including new Guava! And we have goat milk and cheeses from Southern Maids, too. They both will restock us again on Wednesday and that will include new goat milk ricotta from Southern Maids.
Feliciana’s Best will have whole milk, heavy cream, half & half and chocolate milk this week and we’re excited to add Mauthe’s Progress Milk Barn cheesecakes to the lineup for the first time in years. Creole cream cheese and possibly butter will be back, too!
