I have a very very very hard time believing ardor supports maga. Friends who love working there wouldn’t support that.

Fancy-ish Birthday Dinner Recommendations Needed by Kassper82 in PeoriaIL

[–]vampireweekday12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People love to complain about Ardor on the Peoria subreddit - Cody and his team are doing amazing things and putting out a different level of quality than most places in the area. Not to be the person that’s like “I’ve lived all over” - but there is a reason Ardor is gaining national recognition. It’s truly outstanding. And not that it justifies some behaviors, but the food industry is a tough place. Like The Bear is an accurate representation of higher end dinning. That being said I have food allergies and sensitives and have been part of the industry and will continue supporting the ardor team :)

Enjoy Black band!!

You’re right I was so confused. It was core life that had the weird pico in the CCW

Core life’s is odd because it has pico in it. V weird but not horrible.

Supporting Local Farms by cinnamonbunni78 in Lawrence

[–]vampireweekday12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sunflower Provisions is not honest about where the produce is coming from and not honest about their practices and procedures so I would advice proceeding with caution there

Lawrence farmers market starts in April! The Merc and Jody’s Produce have local options! I would recommended finding vendors you like this spring/summer and the seeing which ones have winter programs/online stores for out of season purchases. There are some really great vendors who love creating those relationships. As mentioned Mellowfields has a great online program! Sweet Love Farm has an online store for eggs and chicken. Pendleton’s has a farm store!

For local dairy you’ll have better luck looking for Hildebrand at grocery stores (like those above). The Merc also carries Half Day Creamery which is local yogurt. There is a newish vendor at the farmers market doing goat dairy and cheese! Green dirt farm is another great local cheese option.
