HI! And welcome to Altan Alma Louisville's Blog. Here is where employees share great information and thoughts about the food we proudly sell. Here you can find interesting insights and stories, information about medicinal uses of plants, how to grow microgreens, advice on planting, and much much more. We will also feature our weekly specials and what is fresh.
Let me introduce myself.
My name is Sara Ford. I just began working with Altan Alma about a month ago. In the last year, I have been increasingly eager to learn more about organic food and how to grow my own. The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know about how food affects our bodies and our lives. It has been an incredible month of learning for me and I hope to share my thoughts, insights and new knowledge with you as I learn.
For example:
We sell a grain called "Canahua." I had never heard of it and when a customer asked me for information on it, I looked it up out of curiousity. It turns out it's a grain, usually grown in the Andes. It does not have gluten and it can be used for all kinds of baking. It bakes similarly to Quinoa, and has a high amount of protein. Great news for vegetarians and people with Celiac or gluten-intolerance.
See? You learn something new everyday...or at least I have been. Come and see us. We carry everyday organic groceries like milk, cheese, bread, meat, and butter as well some more hard-to-find products like Canahua. If you are looking for organic cleaning products or dog food, we sell those too!
