Lamb Shoulder Chops
Shoulder chops are larger in size than rib and loin chops, and have a tougher muscle structure. This means that you will want to cook them slightly longer than a rib or loin chop, and at lower heat. They also benefit from a brine, a rub, or a marinade to help break down the tough muscle fibers. So, just like any other tough cut of meat, they require low, slow cooking, which makes them ideal for your slow cooker. You can’t quickly pan-fry or grill them.

White Quinoa, Organic
White Organic Quinoa, Peru
Quinoa is the most ancient American staple grain with a complete protein profile. It is highly nutritious, easily digestible, and has a distinct grassy flavour and aroma and a slightly crunchy texture when cooked. Quinoa can be cooked and enjoyed like rice but needs rinsing prior to cooking in order to remove excess bitterness. It is excellent in pilafs or in salads such as Tabbouleh. Cooked quinoa is a delicious stuffing for peppers or squash and can be used as a binder for vegetarian burgers or in turkey meatloaf.

Something Good Dog (and Cat) Treats
Salt Spring and Cowichan Valley sourcedReward your furry family member with quality treats
We use organ meats from pastured animals from local farms. No factory farms or mystery ingredients. These treats are pure organ meat with no additives, fillers, or preservatives. They are a healthy snack that our dogs and cat go nuts for.
The treats maintain their nutritional value through low and slow heating during dehydration. They are great for dogs who eat raw or kibble. These treats are great to use for training rewards and gentle glandular therapy.
We are Hannah and Alex, baby Sarah, our dogs Chonk and Baby and our cat Shadow. Everyone is very busy on production days! Our pets never get tired of helping us test for quality.
We recommend storing in an airtight container in a cool dark place. Best if used within 3 months of purchase (which shouldn’t be an issue).
Too much of a good thing is still too much – 5-10%of daily intake should be dedicated to treats (ours or others). As with any food some dogs’ guts may take time to adjust to a new food and some dogs may just not tolerate certain organs. Monitor for signs of gastrointestinal upset. Please note this is intended as a standard disclaimer and we have never seen an issue in all the animals who have eaten our treats – they are part of the natural diet for carnivores.

Steel Cut Oats, Organic
Organic Steel Cut Oats, Canada
Organic steel cut oats contains potassium, calcium, magnesium, several different B-vitamins and vitamin E. Additionally, oats have trace minerals, such as manganese, copper, iron, selenium and zinc. They are also full of phytochemicals, which are good for you, and contain both insoluble and soluble fiber.
Steel cut oats are made by taking the oat groats and cutting them into 2 to 3 smaller pieces using a steel blade. Steel cut oats are also sometimes called Irish oats. Steel cut oats are also more coarse than other types of oats and tend to be chewier. This gives them a hearty texture that is very filling, but it does mean they require longer soaking and cooking times. However, they are still good to use in an overnight oats recipe.

Bull Kelp
Dakini Tidal Wilds’ Edible Bull Kelp, Vancouver Island
Dakini Tidal Wilds’ Bull Kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) is harvested by hand off the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island & tested for purity. Seaweeds are among the most nutritive and complete foods and are the most concentrated food source of minerals on the planet. They are nature’s perfectly balanced mineral supplement. Dakini Tidal Wilds offers customers a local choice of seaweed.
Kelps in particular are unique in their ability to safely eliminate certain heavy metals, PCB’s, dioxins and certain radioactive compounds from the body. They do this via a compound called ‘sodium alginate’. This quality makes the kelp family of seaweeds one of the most important sources of protection against today’s most harmful environmental toxins.
One of the most exciting areas of research in seaweeds is with cancer. In particular, a compound called ‘fucoidan’, found in the kelp family of seaweeds as well as other seaweeds in the phylum ‘Phaeophyta’, has shown some very exciting and promising results so far. Winged Kelp is one of the highest sources of fucoidan.
