We're Still Celebrating Earth Day (everyday)! |
We had a wonderful time at our Kids' Earth Day event this
week! We wanted to share some pictures (with parent permission) of our
activities like eco crafts, playing games, telling stories, and
learning about the environment! |
One of the easiest ways to be kind to our planet is to
reduce the amount of waste from single use containers. Learn how to
use the bulk section at Wild Onion and bring your jars, bags, or other
containers to take home some of our bulk spices, herbs, teas, nuts,
and other staples! |

Smoothie Season & NoLa To Go
We've been non-stop craving bright
fruity smoothies now that it's sunny and warm! Consider smoothie
season officially here.
Plus, the 4Suns Kitchen staple dish,
NoLa Red Beans and Rice, is available to take home with you for an
easy, hearty, healthy dinner.

Thanks to everyone for submitting recipe ideas and
suggestions! Because of you, rice bowls can now be made with
quinoa instead. Is there something you'd like to see on the menu
at 4 Suns Kitchen? We'd love to know. Click the button below to share
