Week of feb 22

​Hi Everyone

It is amazing what a little warmer weather can do for all of our spirits. More shoppers were out and we sold out of many things in just a few days. It was so nice to see so many of you, but I feel bad when we run out of products so soon. One of my reps always tells me not to worry, I will never get the guessing game of ordering down right. Ha he is so right.

There are still products and produce I have not been able to get back in the store due to this past year of Covid issues, but I continue to bring back the favorites as I can get them. I know many are waiting for the Super Acerola Vitamin C.  I still have no estimated time frame for getting them back.  Great  news, a digestive enzyme called Mega Zyme is finally back in as of today.  We have been out for a few months. There is still a problem with many suppliers of obtaining the glucosamine supplements.
It looks like the dairy free yogurt KiteHill will not be arriving again this week. It has not been  available the past two weeks. 

I am bringing in a couple new sparkling waters to try and a new milk salsa.  Muir Glen organic mild salsa has not been available for awhile but it looks like maybe I will be able to get it back in the coming weeks. 

I want to thank everyone that stopped by to shop, offered loans and made donations this past week. We are so fortunate to live in such a great community and extended community that has put their trust in us.

We are still taking applications for part time staffing for 15-20 hours per week. Interviews have not begun.  You can stop by for an application or find one on our website at islandcityfoodcoop.com
