The Carrot Barn Store has joined our family

I'd like to welcome the Carrot Barn Store to our growing family of beautiful stores that sell our chocolates.

They are the farm store for Schoharie Valley Farms. I buy my produce from Richard Ball there. It's fantastic produce. I use it in my cooking. Asparagus are now in season people and there's is great. Please don't buy it all up I need some for the restaurant.

Now this is interesting. Little Lake Campground called to ask me to demo, or rather participate in a chocolate show, at their camp grounds on June 14th. That's the Saturday. As you know, I've been so busy will all the new customers that I just can never find the time. However, this is close by and is only 3 hours. I'll be there at their wine and beer show from 3 - 6. So come on by.

Plus, the Little Lake Campground will also be carrying our chocolates. Another reason to stay there. So, let me welcome to the Life by Chocolate family, Little Lake Campground. Pictures are coming.

Welcome Park Natural Health Foods

I'd like to welcome Park Natural Health Foods in Brooklyn, a beautiful store. It's "Your Local Full Service Health Food Store" and they mean it. Nice people with a mission to serve your needs. They aren't yet carrying our bath products but they are carrying our full line of chocolate bars.

Pumpkin's Organic Market,Brooklyn, has upped and joined

Pumpkin's Organic Market

Brooklyn, New York 11215
Phone: 718-499-8539

Could I say it any better than, "Your friendly neighborhood organic grocer, specializing in unique and tastey organic foods!" (sic.) Probably but I couldn't be any truer. This is a fine group of people who will help you. What more could you ask?

When you walk into Pumpkin's it looks like the inside of a very, very clean barn in el campo limpia. If you know what I mean. go there and you'll get what you need. They're on their way to becoming vegan and so they've ordered some special bars from me that will become mainstream. It's a beautiful place with fun people staffing it. Say hi to Chiqui (pronounced Cheeky) and Christina. Have fun.

Main St Grainery in Chatham New York

The Main St Grainery has joined the Life by Chocolate family and are now carrying our chocolates. So, if you're in Chatham New York, stop buy there and buy some chocolates and also pick up some of their great apple cider. Sigh. I drank the last of it today. We took it XC skiing. Sigh, again, no less.

The farm is a biodynamic farm and the store reflects those values. No GMO. No chemicals. They carry all natural and 90% or their products and produce are organic. It's a beautiful store run by beautiful people and I am so happy that they bought my chocolates. It's worth a trip out to their farm and store.

Hilltown Market in Rensselaerville

The store that started it all. Rob at Hilltown Market wanted to carry my chocolates. He and Rachel have been big supporters. And when I was reviewing my blog, I saw that back in January, I mentioned Hilltown twice, in two entries, I did not actually have a welcoming post for them. For shame! ;-)

So, here it is. I'd like to welcome the coop and health food store that started the ball rolling. Welcome to the Life by Chocolate family and thanks most humbly.
