Demo next Wednesday (10/21)!

Jordan Wilson from the award winning Astorian food truck Surf2Soul will be demystifying the art of crab cakes and crab louie!

Crab louie is a salad akin to salade nicoise, combining hard boiled eggs, crunchy veggies and fresh crab meat in a tangy mayonnaise sauce. Crab cakes combine fresh crab meat, breadcrumbs, and seasoning into a delectable patty that can be enjoyed on a bun or with a pile of roast vegetables.

The demonstration will run from 5:30-6:30pm in the downstairs flag room at the Astoria Public Library. As always, the demo is free and open to the public, no registration required.

Curious about starting your own food or beverage company?

Only 1 week left to register for the Food and Beverage Entrepreneur's Boot Camp!

This 5 week course ($99, 1 session per week) covers a broad range of topics while also providing hands-on technical assistance for recipe refinement, product costing, and working in a commercial setting.

During this course individuals will learn about recipe development, packaging considerations, labeling, regulations, manufacturing logistics, distribution, marketing, and more. Participants will work with a business advisor to help apply what they are learning in the classroom.

When asked about the course that he has helped to build and will begin teaching in October, local chef Andy Catalano said this: "I wish this had been available when I was starting my food business years ago."

Thanks to Astoria Co+op shoppers for raising $2,651.10 for North Coast Food Web in August! This local nonprofit works to cultivate a resilient and equitable food system by supporting producers and improving access to local food. The funds will help support their free food box program, which provides food purchased from local producers for free to food insecure individuals and families.

Let's keep raising funds for our current Change for Community recipient, Clatsop Community Action Regional Food Bank. September is Hunger Action Month so let's do what we can to address food insecurity! The co-op also has food donation crates near the registers so you can drop off non-perishable items to go directly to the food bank.
