LAKE COUNTY — Lake Co-op announced the addition of three new product lines.
The new products include micro and baby-greens from Lifefood Gardens. Traditional tea imports from TeaCos and skin care, home and lifestyle products from Zoe”s Organics.
Another new addition is an organic farm, Ron and Bibiana Love Farms in Lakeport.
Katy Pomelov of Lifefood Gardens provides Lake Co-op customers products in the baby greens category, sprouted legumes and blends of micro-greens, according to JoAnn Saccato, chair of Lake Co-op.
Her micro-greens include broccoli, mild brassica, spicy salad and purple mixes. Adzuki, green peas, mung bean, mixed bean and a lentil mix blend provide a variety of sprouted legumes. Pomelov also uses a sun-dried sea salt solution that allows the greens to take up trace minerals that are not found in regularly watered greens.
Lake Co-op Owner and Worker Rachel Pries started a virtual tea shop on Lake Co-op website and is in the process of opening a tea shop in Lucerne. Customers can now purchase organic and specialty tea imports, filters and mugs, Saccato.
