If 10,000 SF Biters opt for a jar of organic beans rather than the conventional variety, we'll keep the weight of eight sacks of potatoes in pesticides from entering the environment.
The phrase "in a pickle" is generally credited to Shakespeare, from his play The Tempest.
In a Pickle
The Bite
Stuck between potato chips and cheese puffs come snack time? Happy Girl Kitchen Co. gives you a way out. It takes surplus, early ripening, or misshapen veggies that might not have the chance to go to market off farmers' hands, then pickles or mashes them into tasty new creations. And since much of the produce it uses comes from within 20 mi of the kitchen, its organic snacks and foods - such as the cumin green beans (commence drooling), classic marinara sauce, and pesto - won't require fuel for long-distance transport, and they won't stick you or the earth with pesticides.
Wanna Try
Happy Girl Kitchen Co., available online or at the Ferry Building Farmers Market, Sat., 8 a.m.-2 p.m., Market St. at Embarcadero. Cumin green beans, $8/pt.
