New Summer Special from Azuki's Kitchen! Lemon Sourdough Muffins are made with sourdough starter (no yeast!) and my special organic lemon jam and peels. The new school year is just around the corner, so I hope you enjoy this sweet, sour, moist with a hint of crunchiness (due to cornmeal of the muffins) to help ease your busy morning! Order this weekend!

Build out Update
Update: More progress this week! Bathroom buildout started on June 21st. New website is almost done and I hope to launch in the next couple of weeks. I'll continue to keep you all posted and give everyone plenty of notice before we move. As of right now we are probably still a couple of months out depending on how fast permits will be issued...
If you are a new member you may not know about this. Please check out this information about upcoming changes to the market. Please read letter below and/or watch video.

PLEASE HELP! Volunteers Needed at pick up!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Since I'm not sure when the new store will open up I went ahead a created Volunteer schedule until August. Hopefully we'll be at new location sooner... Please click link below if you can help!
Please consider volunteering during market pick up. I can’t run the market without your help! Shifts are 1 hour long and go by really fast. It's a great opportunity to meet and help your fellow members!
Thank you Karen, Veverly, Mimi, Kim, Gwen, and Miki for volunteering last Wednesday! We couldn't have the co-op without our amazing volunteers!!
If you are interested in volunteering but unsure exactly what that involves, please let Nora know and she will do a quick "volunteer orientation" with you on a day/time that you pick up.
