Shortbread and Gelato Tasting on Friday!
Join us this Friday, June 25th Noon to 2 pm for a fantastic tasting of sorbeto and shortbread!
Lifecycles Fruit Tree Project will be sampling their new plum sorbeto and The Cookie Crate will be sampling a selection of their wonderful sweet shortbreads.
We carry two other types of gelato and sorbeto from the Fruit Tree Project and Salt Spring Island Gelato:
Fruit Tree Apple Pie Gelato – Locally harvested apples combined with a special spice mixture create the next best thing to mom’s apple pie.
Fruit Tree Pear Sorbeto – Locally grown and harvested pears. Refreshing and full of flavour.
Profits from the sale of these flavours are split between the Fruit Tree Project and Salt Spring Gelato. Click here to read an earlier posting about the Fruit Tree Project.
LifeCycles Fruit Tree Project appreciates the opportunity to partner with local, social-minded companies like Salt Spring Island Gelato. This partnership allows us to expand our membership, advocate for local food systems and economies, and raise funds in a sustainable and ethical fashion. The Fruit Tree Project redistributes over 25,000 lbs of food a year, food that would otherwise go to waste.
Jo-Ann Palmer and Pebbles Walker make wonderful shortbread cookies just up Island at The Cookie Crate in Black Creek, BC. The savory line includes blue cheese and walnut, white cheddar and herb, and our curry and currant. The sweet line consists of original, lemon and almond.
