Speaking of South Kitsap

“You don’t have to be a hippie, a vegetarian or part of the counter culture” to appreciate organically grown farmed food grown in a sustainable manner, accord to the Kitsap Food Co-op’s Web site.

The group includes “normal people of all ages who are tired of the industrial way our food is being grown,” the Web site states.

Members hope to start a cooperative grocery whose shelves are stocked with locally grown and produced foods. Until they can see that dream to a conclusion, you can find them from 4 to 7:30 p.m. Thursdays at the Bremerton Farmer’s Market. Also check out the Kitsap Sun’s Guide to Eating Local.

The co-op is planning a Fall Fair as a fundraiser from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday at Rodstol Lane Farm.

There will be cider press demonstrations, a pumpkin patch, music and vendors. Wear your tie-dye.
