June 2021 – Summer Solstice
Ambrosia Apple A Day Update
Patricia has been avidly eating her apple a day for more than half the year now, and is still going strong. “I made a commitment at the beginning of the year to be kinder to myself and treat my body a little better. Ambrosia apples are so healthy, and delicious, that it’s easy!
“I’ve been reading the Come Dine With Me posts, and since I had the John Bishop cookbook, I tried the duck recipe. It did not disappoint! I paired it with the latest salad recipe, and it was out of this world!”

Ambrosia Apples Cocktail Recipes

School’s Out
Whatever school meant to our students is officially done for the year — and what a school year it’s been! Send the kids outside with a healthy snack! We highly recommend these Ambrosia Apple Granola Bars. They are made with wholesome BC ingredients, and are perfect for snacking.
Happy Father’s Day
With June comes Father’s Day, where we paid homage to our fathers. Apparently, the day may originate in pagan sun worship. Some branches of paganism see the Sun as the father of the universe, and since the June solstice occurs around the same time of year as Father’s Day, some people draw a link between the two. We like to think of it as a time to celebrate all the great dads out there! Congrats, Dads! We are who we are because of you! Although it might be a little late for the big day, try these Grilled Ambrosia Apple
Pork Burgers. Dad is sure to love them, as will the entire family!

Owner Kirstin sent us this picture of the first thing planted in the new raised bed food garden framing the entrance of Sanctuary Gardens in West Kelowna. It was planted on her grandson’s second birthday, so will forever be known as Niall’s tree. |
