Flathead Food Swappers is a new Facebook group, launched by Kathie Lapcevic and a friend. I have added this link to our ESP links column under Food: Local/Organic Links, for your future reference. Here’s a printable flyer about the group: Flathead Food Swappers Flyer.

From Kathie Lapcevic:

Flathead Food Swappers

Inspired by other food swaps across the country, we aim to be a group of kind folks who meet several times a year to swap homemade 7 homegrown food and celebrate the diversity of foodstuffs available in our community.

We’ll swap most anything that is homemade or homegrown:

  • Extra garden produce (fruits, veggies, herbs, nuts, etc.)
  • Seeds
  • Wild-harvested / foraged foods (including wild game)
  • Home-canned items (high-acid food only)
  • Home-dehydrated & frozen goods
  • Homemade lacto-fermented foods
  • Home-grown eggs, meats, milk, etc.
  • Home baked items (breads, cookies, cakes, etc.)

For more info:

  • Contact mtkatiecakes(at)yahoo(dot)com (address disguised for security).

 


Free Rabbits

rabbit-carrotcake2They are still available, just in time for Easter! (updated 4/2/09)

Irene Paine in Bigfork has several domestic rabbits to give away.  These furry critters have gone semi-feral in her pasture.  They are the same type of domestic rabbit that can be purchased at Murdoch’s, such as kids raise for 4H. They can be kept as pets, or used as food (but please don’t tell her grandkids if you intend to eat the rabbits).

To see more photos of her rabbits, check out Irene’s blog, Cape Codder in Montana (http://capecodderinmontana.blogspot.com/)

If you are interested in these rabbits, contact Irene at 837-2437 or irenepaine(at)gmail(dot)com (disguised email address).
