Mount Cabot Maple

March 24, 2023 By Littleton Food Co-op

By Catherine Cushing, Specialty Cheese Manager

If you happen to be in downtown Lancaster and feel like taking a lovely drive out into the countryside, you might go up Middle St, take a left onto Grange Rd., follow Grange Rd thru to Pleasant Valley Rd, take another left onto Rowell Rd and at about 1⁄2 mile in on the left, you will come upon the homestead and enterprise of Morgan Hill, owner of Mount Cabot
Maple.

Mount Cabot, the tallest mountain in the Pilot Range of the White Mountains, is the site of the organic sugarbush where Morgan and her team collect sap in the early spring and reduce the
sap in a traditional wood-fired boiler to produce a single source, unadulterated and exceptional maple syrup, maple cream and dry maple sugar.

In 2020, Morgan purchased MountCabot Maple from Biff Wyman, a longtime and famed sugarmaker, who reached the decision to sell the business after the 2016 and 2017 devastating Forest Tent Caterpillar infestation defoliated thousands of trees, resulting in a 62% decline in syrup production. Morgan was raised on this property and is a passionate steward of the land. She knows that in their lifetime she will not witness a full forest recovery, but is still committed to employing best practices and lots of hard work (much of it done on snowshoes) to achieve the best outcome.

We at the Littleton Food Co-op are happy to support Mount Cabot Maple and to offer these fine products to our customers. The Mount Cabot sugarbush has been in operation under one sugar maker or another since the 1860’s and we suggest that you visit the informative and engaging Mount Cabot Maple website to learn more about the history and geography of this special place in our world and the people behind this outstanding product.

March Member Raffle

March 16, 2023 By Littleton Food Co-op

From March 19-25 2023 we’re offering a Member Appreciation raffle! This one’s for all our Partial Members out there: come by the Co-op and upgrade to a Full Membership – that’s 4 shares total – or purchase a brand new Full Membership. As a thank you, we’ll give you a raffle ticket for a chance to win a fun gift basket of local goodies!

If you’re a partial Member with fewer than 4 shares, you’re probably aware that you’re missing out on the benefits of a Full Co-op Membership, like the ability to vote in our Board Elections. We encourage you to check how many shares you currently own, upgrade to a Full Membership, and claim a raffle ticket! We want to make sure everyone can vote in our upcoming Election, and this is a fun way to remind everyone to become Full voting Members and help our cooperative democracy happen.

Our grand prize is worth about $130, and includes all kinds of great local products. Here are some highlights:

Genuine Jamaican BBQ sauce, made right across the river in Barnet, Vermont. Check out John Heartson’s video, featuring Derrick, the Genuine Jamaican: “In Vermont”

Bee’s Wrap is made in Middlebury, Vermont. Infusing organic cotton with a blend of beeswax, plant oil and tree resin, she created a durable yet pliable beeswax food wrap that could be used again and again – helping people be like bees and do their part for the greater good of the planet.

Maple Medicine was created from a desire to establish a natural medicine chest to support holistic family wellness. Made in Montgomery, Vermont.

Badger is inspired to make healing products and run a healthy business where money is the fuel and not the goal, where fun is encouraged, and where they cultivate good through their actions and advocacy. Their facilities are in Gilsum, NH.

Janice Mercieri is a member here at the Co-op, helps run the Seed Library in our foyer, was NH’s 2021 Beekeeper of the year, fierce advocate for the environment and owns White Mountain Apiary in Whitefield, NH.

(And yes, Full Members can enter too! We won’t leave you out of the fun.)

The 21-Day Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge

March 9, 2023 By Littleton Food Co-op

The 21-Day Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge is now in its 9th year, growing from humble numbers to over 7,000 organizations and individuals participating in 2022.

There are lots of challenges like this out there – just google it! So why is this one special, and why is your Co-op talking about it? The Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge comes from Food Solutions New England at UNH, so it’s a local thing. It focuses on food, food systems, agriculture, land access, and related topics, which are all near and dear to our cooperative hearts.

Plus the whole idea syncs up really well with Cooperative Principle #5, which encourages Co-ops to participate in Education, Training, & Information. This Challenge is just 21 days, making it a manageable way to educate yourself about what food goes into your body, and all the ways our food choices affect the world in which we live.

It also fits in with our DEI Statement, along with the four pillars of education, accountability, communications, and sustainability.

We all eat, right? The food cycle – including farms, processing, distribution, marketing, shopping, eating, and of course, waste – has a massive impact not just on ourselves and our health, but also on the environment and on our communities. It’s become clear, especially during the pandemic, that our food system requires an overhaul in order to be sustainable. This challenge is a wonderful way for each of us to learn the part we play in co-creating a thriving future, for ourselves and future generations.

So, what’s the challenge? It typically happens in April (but you can do the reading anytime!), so if you sign up with Food Solutions you’ll receive a daily email prompt with a short reading, video, or audio file. You can work at your own pace, and are encouraged to take about ten to fifteen minutes each day with the material in the prompt, plus extra resources will be provided in case you want to dig further into the day’s topic. You have the option to log into an online forum if you’d like to discuss the prompts in a supported and moderated environment. You’re also encouraged to share your experience on social media using the hashtag #FSNEEquityChallenge and have conversations with friends, co-workers, or other community members who may also be doing the Challenge.

Visit the Food Solutions website to learn more and register for this April:

www.foodsolutionsne.org/21-day-racial-equity-habit-building-challenge

 Join A Co-op Discussion Group

Becky, our Community Outreach Coordinator, will be doing the challenge along with some of our staff here at the Co-op! We’ve heard from a few people that they’d be interested in doing this together at some point in early summer, and we would love to have Members, employees, and even Board Directors get involved and get our own discussion group going this year.

If you’d like to join us in the cafe to chat about the Challenge once a week or so, feel free to drop your contact info below. Or just reach out to Becky: bcolpitts@littletoncoop.org.

Reduce Food Waste At Home

January 19, 2023 By Littleton Food Co-op

By Robin Asbell
I have a confession to make. Sometimes, in the course of my week, I make too much food. Sound like a good problem to have? Well, it seems to be alarmingly common in our affluent country. My excuse is that I develop recipes for a living, so I test recipes even when I already have food to eat. My family, friends and neighbors all benefit from my overproduction, but more often than I would like, things go to waste. That half a jar of tomatoes for the pizza I made a couple of weeks ago got ignored when I moved on to testing dessert recipes. Then, we meant to finish all that cake, but by the time we realized that we couldn’t eat another bite, it was stale.

I feel terrible about it, every time, and resolve to do better. This year, for Earth Day, I’m going to do my small part to cut back on waste.

Earth Day started in 1970, back when there was no regulation of pollution. It was perfectly legal to dump sewage in the river, or send tons of toxins up in smoke. That year, Senator Gaylord Nelson created Earth Day, and 20 million Americans came out in solidarity across the country. By that December, Congress created the EPA, and started reining in industrial polluters and protecting our air and water.

Since then, Earth Day has become an annual reminder that we still have work to do, on recycling, cleaning up our toxic industries, as well as not wasting food.

Dried up carrots, moldy nubs of cheese, and stale bread heels pile up in refrigerators across the USA, and they add up to billions of dollars in food waste. In fact, food scraps are the number one thing that goes to the landfill. According to the EPA, methane gas released from food waste in landfills accounts for 20% of the United States’ greenhouse gas emissions.

We waste food at all points in the supply chain, so it’s not just your fridge that’s causing problems. At harvest, it gets damaged and tossed on the way out of the field. At the processing plant, things spoil or stick to the machinery and get rinsed down the drain. Grocery stores have to sort through and discard produce that isn’t perfect, although some of that is picked up by food shelves (a recent study found that food co-ops recycle 74% of food waste compared with a recycling rate of 36% for conventional grocers.) Out of date packaged goods have be pitched, as well. Restaurants and food service fill dumpsters with all the food we leave on our plates, combined with things that didn’t sell in time.

I am going to work to waste less this year and use more of the food I buy. If you’d like to do the same, here are a dozen tips that can help reduce your waste, and as a bonus, save you money!

12 tips to reduce food waste

1. Use those radish and carrot greens

Buying radishes or carrots by the bunch? Use the leaves to make pesto, salads (like Moroccan Carrot Radish Salad), and toss in soup. Think of them as peppery parsley.

2. Savor broccoli and cauliflower stems

Do you discard broccoli and cauliflower stems? Peel the tough skin from the stems and chop the tender cores to use in the dish, or cut in planks to eat with dip. This Creamy Broccoli soup uses the stems and florets.

3. Cook kale stems like you would celery

Do you discard kale and other greens stems? When cooking with kale, you can simply separate the leaves from the stems, chop the stems, and cook the stems first; they will cook a bit like celery. If you juice, save all your greens stems from meals you prepare, including parsley, and add to your juice for a chlorophyll boost.

4. Flavor stock and other dishes with potato peels

Do you peel potatoes? The peels make a flavorful addition to stock, and even thicken it a bit. Consider whether you even need to peel; many soups, potato salads and even mashed potatoes are more nutritious and filling with the skins left on.

5. Enjoy the flavor and nutrition of apple peels

Baking or cooking with apples? Leave the skins on and you will reap the nutrients and fiber they contain, and save time. If you do peel, add them to soup stock, for a subtle sweetness.

6. Zest your citrus and freeze for future use

Juicing a lemon or lime or eating an orange? Zest your organically grown citrus first, then you can freeze the potent zest in a freezer bag, for adding a hint of citrus to everything from muffins to pastas.

7. Peel overripe bananas and freeze for smoothies or baking

Are those bananas looking a little too brown to put in the lunch box? Peel and freeze them, then add them to smoothies (like Hidden-Spinach Berry Smoothie or Orange Dream Silken Smoothie), or thaw and puree for banana bread, muffins and cakes.

8. Puree and freeze veggies before they go bad

Do you have veggies going soft in the crisper? Cook and puree carrots, sweet potatoes, greens, cauliflower, and other veggies, then freeze. Stir the purees into pasta sauce, macaroni and cheese, soups, casseroles and meatloaf for an added veggie boost.

9. Save veggie trimmings for soup stock

Cutting up vegetables for a dish? Save and freeze the skins and trimmings from onions, carrots, celery, sweet potato, potato, parsley, spinach, and other mild veggies (peppers, cabbage and broccoli can be too strong) until you have a good amount to make Veggie Trim Stock.

10. Use up stale bread in flavorful recipes

Do you have bread going stale? Freeze the slices to use later in stuffing, croutons, or recipes such as Ribollita soup, Creamy Lentil Soup with Wheaty Croutons or Flexible Bread and Veggie Casserole. Make croutons for salads and soups, or crumbs to toss with pasta or top casseroles. Don’t forget about bread pudding and stratas, too.

11. Keep food that needs to be consumed soon front and center

Organize your refrigerator and pantry, and put foods that should be consumed sooner right in front. Switch your storage containers from opaque to clear glass, so that you will see that tasty lasagna from last night, because out of sight is out of mind.

12. Turn your vegetable scraps into fertilizer

Do you have room for a compost pile or a worm bin? Ultimately, transforming your plant waste into fertilizer is better than packing it in the landfill. Or if you don’t have the space at home, bring your food scraps to the co-op! We have a collection bin right out front for Meadowstone Farm, which takes food waste and turns it into fresh soil.

Co-op Community Meal: December 2022

December 8, 2022 By Littleton Food Co-op

Here are some fun photos from our most recent Community Meal, held in our cafe on December 5 2022 from 5-7pm.  It was so wonderful to see everyone’s smiling faces while we served up delicious baked ziti, garlic knots, salad, and cookies for dessert. We’re still working out the numbers, but we will post the total we raised for the Co-op Community Fund as soon as we know!

A big shout out to our Deli team for preparing such a marvelous dinner, our Board members who put their time into volunteering, and all the staff who put in extra hours to serve salad and cookies and help clean up. And of course our guests, for filling the cafe with community and good cheer!

We plan on hosting these meals every couple of months, so the next one will be in February. Make sure to follow us on social media and sign up for our newsletter so you are up to date on the next event.

What’s For Dinner?

March 24, 2022 By Littleton Food Co-op

By Matt Perry, Bulk Department Manager

What’s for dinner? It is a question that we are often unprepared for. Or at least, it is for those of us who are not expert meal planners. I imagine that most of us start thinking about this question at
the end of the day when we are tired, somewhat hungry, and yes, crabby. It can be especially tricky if you are cooking not only for yourself, but for your family members or partner and have to take
into account their differing tastes and opinions.

Thanks to my coworker, Alexa, I’ve been thinking about the question “What’s for dinner?” much earlier in the day, as she usually asks me in the morning. When she first started asking me, I chuckled, because I have never really been conditioned to start thinking about meals so far in advance! “I dunno,” I usually shrug. This is usually followed by a bit of a brainstorming session, taking into consideration things like, ‘what’s in the fridge?’ and ‘what did I eat last night?’ You see, Alexa is a Foodie and loves talking about food, so we can usually come up with some pretty good ideas. Grilled chicken? No, I had chicken last night. How about salmon? Nah, not really in the mood for that. Spaghetti and meatballs? Yes, actually I have some ground beef in the fridge. Oh, and the Raos tomato sauce is on sale. Perfect!

Once you get into the routine of planning in advance, working with what you have, and discussing food with your friends, you’ll start to find that the question “what’s for dinner?” will become much easier to answer. Bon Appetit, Co-operators!

How Co-ops Are Helping Ukraine

March 14, 2022 By Littleton Food Co-op

Cooperatives around the world operate according to a set of principles adopted by the International Cooperative Alliance. All people deserve the right to represent themselves democratically (Principle 2) and be free from tyranny or control from others (Principle 4). We also believe in cooperation among cooperatives, which means cooperatives should help and support one another (Principle 6).

Ukraine’s Central Union of Consumer Societies oversees a wide range of cooperative services and everyday essentials in many Ukrainian communities. This includes food co-ops just like ours, as well as public media production, education, manufacturing, and essential services. All of these cooperatives are at risk – along with the citizens and communities that rely on them – as long as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine continues.

In a show of solidarity, National Co+op Grocers (NCG) has partnered with the Cooperative Development Foundation (CDF) and NCBA CLUSA to launch a fundraising drive to support the Ukrainian cooperative community. Our General Manager and our Board have organized a direct donation of $2000 for this fund, which will directly support Cooperatives in Ukraine. Even better, NCG is matching all donations up to $100,000, effectively doubling the power of our contribution. That’s especially critical right now, since many of the towns and cities where people are trapped will need the food, shelter, and services that the Ukrainian Coop provides!

“The sense of support and solidarity we feel from around the world gives us strength,” said Illia Gorokhovskyi, board chair of the All-Ukrainian Central Union of Consumer Societies (COOP Ukraine), adding that the country’s cooperatives are continuing to serve their members. “Despite these circumstances, consumer cooperatives are making efforts to provide the population with the necessities of life, primarily food, and delivering them to where it is most needed.”

We’re not actively seeking additional donations at this time, but there are other ways you can help! NPR has compiled an excellent list of organizations you can donate to, and World Central Kitchen is providing fresh, nourishing meals to Ukrainian refugees.

Fondue, Two Ways

December 30, 2021 By Littleton Food Co-op

Fondue is a crowd-pleaser that’s perfect for New Year’s Eve, or when you’re ready to warm up after a weekend of skiing. Pick up some swiss cheeses from our specialty cheese department (personally, we prefer Gruyère and Emmentaler) along with a bottle of dry white wine, plus some fruit, veggies, and bread for dipping, and you’re ready to go!

Don’t have a fondue pot? You can use a double boiler, slow cooker, or a heavy saucepan with a hot plate or tealight underneath. Also, consider placing a few plates of dipping items around the pot, so that guests don’t have to reach over to get what they need. 

Here are two recipes to get you started:

Co-op Cheese Fondue

Ingredients:

1 small garlic clove, halved
1 cup dry white wine
¾ pound Gruyère cheese, grated
¾ pound Emmenthaler, raclette or Appenzeller cheese, grated
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
1 to 2 tablespoons kirsch (optional)
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste (optional)

Directions:

Rub the inside of a fondue pot with the garlic clove, then discard the garlic. Combine grated Gruyère and Emmentaler with wine, cornstarch and lemon juice and cook over moderate heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cheeses begin to melt. Add kirsch and a pinch of pepper and nutmeg. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring gently, until creamy and smooth. Serve with a selection of foods for dipping.

For Dipping:

Crusty bread cubes; steamed broccoli or cauliflower; carrot, celery or fennel sticks; cubed apple; seedless grapes; clementine sections; cubed salami, soppressata or kielbasa; roasted chestnuts and/or dried apricots

(Recipe adapted from cooking.nytimes.com)

Chocolate Fondue

Ingredients:

2 cups heavy cream
24 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or chopped
semisweet chocolate bars
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:

In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the cream until hot, but not simmering. Add the chocolate and stir just until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour the chocolate fondue into the fondue pot and set it up over the heat. Serve with a selection of treats for dipping.

For Dipping:

Sliced bananas, Sliced apples, Sliced pears, Orange segments, Strawberries, Marshmallows, Cake or banana bread cut into cubes, Cookies, Graham crackers

2020 Patronage Dividends

October 21, 2021 By Littleton Food Co-op

We are excited to announce, on behalf of the Littleton Food Co-op’s Board of Directors and our staff, that we will be issuing a Patronage Dividend for Fiscal Year 2020. 

A Note From Our General Manager

The Littleton Food Co-op, like everyone else, experienced plenty of challenges in 2020. Despite all of the added COVID issues, the Co-op had a very strong year with sales over $16.8 million in 2020. Our annual Patronage Dividend is determined by our Net Income, which was also well above record levels. After discussions with the LFC Board of Directors, we’re pleased to announce a Patronage of 3.53% of sales; 50% of which will be paid to Members, and 50% will be retained by the Co-op as capital. This is by far the largest Patronage we’ve ever paid.

I would like to ask that our Members consider donating some or all of their Dividend to the Littleton Food Co-op Community Fund. The LFCCF is the Non-Profit Fund of our Co-operative which makes your donation tax-deductible. Every year all proceeds of the fund are donated to one of the many nonprofits in our area. This year, the Co-op will be matching all donations to the Community Fund through December 2021, up to $50,000! This is just another way that the Co-op gives back to our community. We’ve always been impressed by the generosity of our Members, and for that we thank you. 

None of this would have been possible if it weren’t for the great team of employees at the Co-op and our volunteer Board of Directors. We also have to thank our Membership, over 8,000 households in the North Country, that own the Littleton Food Co-op and support it by shopping here. I am proud and honored to serve such a fine community-minded organization.

Cooperatively, 

Ed King, General Manager


FAQ’s

What is a Patronage Dividend? 

  • Patronage Dividends are determined by the Net Income of the Co-op in a given year (2020), as a way for the Co-op to share its earnings with Members.
  • Each year the Board of Directors votes on whether to issue a Patronage Dividend, based on the Net Income of the previous year.
  • This is one of the most powerful tax benefits we derive from being a Cooperative. Co-ops are allowed to distribute the net income earned from sales to Members, as a rebate to Members. The Co-op does not pay taxes on this amount. Nor is your share considered taxable income, since it’s essentially a deferred price reduction on purchases you’ve already made.

How is the Patronage Dividend Calculated?

  • The 2020 Patronage Dividend is $400,000, or 3.53% of Member purchases.
  • 50% ($200,000) will be distributed among our Members as a Patronage Dividend Rebate.
  • 50% ($200,000) will be retained by the Co-op as capital. Retaining capital is one way of strengthening the long-term health of your Co-op, allowing us to re-invest in future improvements to the store.

How do I know if I qualify for a Patronage Dividend Rebate?

  • To qualify, you must:
    • Be a current Member of Littleton Food Co-op;
    • Have owned at least 1 Member Share between 12/29/2019 and 1/2/2021;
    • Be in good standing with the Co-op; ie, your Membership has not ever been revoked or refunded due to disagreement or belligerent behavior.
  • The more you shopped at the Co-op between 12/29/2019 and 1/2/2021, the higher your Patronage Dividend Rebate will be.
  • Qualifying Members with rebates greater than $5.80 will receive a letter in the mail in October 2021 notifying them that they have Patronage funds available to them.
  • All available funds from Patronage Dividend Rebates will be applied as a credit to Members’ accounts. Your cashier can look it up in our system.

How do I use my Patronage Dividend Rebate?

  • Rebates are redeemable at Littleton Food Co-op and have been applied as a credit to your account.
  • When making a purchase, let your cashier know that you would like to use your rebate.
  • We encourage you to donate your rebate to the Littleton Food Co-op Community Fund (LFCCF).
  • Now through 12/31/21, the Co-op will match all donations made to the LFCCF, up to $50,000.
  • If your rebate is $50.00 or more you may request payment by check. Contact Minnie Cushing at mcushing@littletoncoop.org.

What is the Littleton Food Co-op Community Fund?

  • LFCCF is a non-profit 501c3 that allows Co-op Members and shoppers to contribute to an endowment that donates to local non-profit organizations.
  • The Co-op earns interest from this Fund, which is then donated to a local organization each year.
  • For more information about LFCCF, click here.
