ReKaivery - Farmer's Market Reimagined
It’s official! July 18 at 11 a.m., ReKaivery will be open for our first full day of operation at Odell Brewing Co.!
ReKaivery wants to create space for every grower/maker/baker in the Front Range community, which is why we're striving to open multiple marketplaces in the region within the next few years. But first, we need to prove this one works, and to do that, we need people to show out! Tell your communities. Tell your friends. Tell your neighbors. Tell your dogs. If Fort Collins continues to show its appetite for local foods and that it prioritizes its abundance of quality producers, our food system could become a blueprint for other communities across the state of Colorado. And that'd be pretty cool.

Sagrada.com has a new online shop featuring many of the lovely items one could have found in their store on Telegraph Avenue in Oakland, CA. Sagrada owners, Carlo and Mary Busby, are dear friends and collaborators; and they have featured many Wabi-Ware products over many, many years. I want to shout out a call to support them while their store is closed - and they have created a beautiful and spacious online shop. See the online shop/general for Guadalupe Collage cards by Peggy Short of Wabi-Ware.

Dias de los Mu***os

The traditions of Dias de los Mu***os (Days of the Dead)
"We invite our dead to join us at least once a year. We put food out for them, their favorite dishes and drink, especially baked bread, tequila or mezcal, and yellow marigolds to make them glad. And lights, candles in the Trees of Life which have also adorned the wedding altars, for life and death are a continuum in the adventure of being human . . .
"We exchange candy skulls with one another's names spelled in color sugar. We laugh a little with death and cry a good bit because little can sweeten the loss of those we love. We keep our memories lively because our dead are precious to us. Only by celebrating their preciousness do we learn to hold precious the living, for it may be that at any moment the living may leave us or we them and join the vast ranks of the dead. Asi es la vida."
*from Rafael Jesus Gonzalez, excerpt "Dias de los Mu***os, Days of the Dead" and posted by Sagrada Sacred Arts (www.sagrada.com) one of Wabi-Ware's treasured collaborators.
