Howdy chocophiles!
It’s been an incredibly busy few months, and we’re sitting here wondering what happened to summer. Sam, the elder spawn, started kindergarten last week! And not just any kindergarten; it’s the one whose Peace Garden has been selling us fresh mint all summer, as it was harvested by kids in summer school programs. We’re excited to become part of the Vance Elementary community. There may be opportunity to teach kids about good chocolate; but more broadly, we look forward to help spread the food philosophy that informs all of our consumption habits.
