So excited to be involved with @bakersagainstracism and our very special friends @littleredfoxdc. You know Isaiah and I love to bake, and we love DC- so we are sending over a big batch of @whiterosemiso peanut butter miso cookies for this amazing fundraiser! Head over to littleredfoxdc.com on Monday for preorder! Pickup is Saturday June 20th!!!!!!! #blacklivesmatter ! Repost from @littleredfoxdc:- It’s been amazing to watch this idea from two local DC pastry chefs @smallorchids @badwolf_88 reach bakeries all across the country: @bakersagainstracism is a virtual bake sale to combat “the unjust treatment of BLACK people in the United States...armed to fight racism with the tools we know how to utilize, our FOOD.” Presale goes live Monday the 15th until sold out with pickup on June 20th. Our bake team decided we’ll be selling one of our favorite ice cream sandwich combos ever: @sugarfoxdc blueberry ice cream sandwiched between two sweet corn cookies. Additionally, we will have a special guest star: peanut butter miso cookies from our incredibly talented friends @whiterosemiso @keepwellvinegar. 100% of sales will be donated to @nationalbailout. 2/3 of people in jail have not been convicted of any crime. They are in jail because they could not pay bail. A 2019 study found that black men were 50% more likely to be detained pretrial than white defendants and bail amounts were on average twice as high. Black people are also up to 50% more likely than white people to be unable to pay their bail. The National Bail Out project is a black-led community of organizers, lawyers and activists dedicated to ending mass incarceration. Donations are currently being directed towards bailing out black mothers, caregivers, and others who are languishing in jail simply because they could not afford to pay what others could.

Black Lives Matter. The entire purpose of our business is to effect a change in our local agricultural landscape for the future- but more and more we realize there needs to be so many other major changes built into this ecosystem that is America. As a company, and personally, we have donated to these groups championing human rights issues: @aclu_nationwide , @splcenter , @eji_org , and @colorofchange; and urge everyone to donate as well or donate resources/time to others they believe in, if possible. But also: vote. We voted yesterday. Voting is a crucial part to changing the course we are on and have taken for too long as a country and as individuals. Trying to be hopeful and devoting time every day to educating ourselves as to what we can do to push forward- racial equality is not a choice, it is a right, and it needs to be given by everyone, to everyone. Vote.

Over 80 in Harrisburg tonight, looking for 1 good dinner involving zero burners. Bread in the toaster, snap peas blanched with the electric kettle. Dilly beans. Dill from the garden. Castelvetrano olive oil, @caputobrothers ricotta, and a little wildflower honey vinegar gently warmed with some actual honey. Counts as the center of the plate because who can eat more than this when it gets this warm anyway? #cookathome #madebykeepwell #ingredients #pantry #localfood #supportlocal #vinegar #honey

Nighttime bake! Honey-Raisin cinnamon swirl oat bread! The oat bread recipe we posted a while ago is really versatile(and good utilization of the oat leftovers if you have jumped on the homemade oat milk train).We cooked the raisins in a little honey, a little honey vinegar and a little cognac, swirl it up and boom! The best French toast bread for morning. *recipes in story and highlights #cinnamonraisinbread #vinegar #madebykeepwell #baking #localfood #supportlocal #ingredients #honey

Isaiah brought in 800 gallons of apple cider today, trying to scheme on how to clean up the end of the harvest, and find somewhere to fit another 1100 gallons. For a treat, I made “BBq butter buns” using the Bbq sauce made the other day for the monkey bread in the dough. Got to thinking...why not put the sauce in the bun too?! Making the sauce is pretty quick and uses the Keepwell/ @whiterosemiso trifecta of vinegar, soy sauce and miso...which adds up to a lot of flavor...The buns are pretty quick too, another no-knead. Add some Vermeer from @keswickcreamery, fat slice of red onion, a few bread and butter pickles, and dreaming of tomato days in the future. Isaiah had two of these and fell asleep, so I guess pretty good? *recipe for buns and bbq sauce and technique in story and highlights #baking #recipe #madebykeepwell #vinegar #miso #soysauce #burger #ingredients #impossibleburger #localfood #supportlocal #fermented #fermentation #fermentedfoods
