We Want to Be On Your A-List



Here at NP, we strive to be a place that makes you feel good...and not only about the locally grown produce we offer, and the variety of gourmet grocery items on our shelves. We want you to feel good about the store itself—the heart of the place and all the people who work here.

AND SPEAKING OF A...
As we got thinking about a-lists, we realized we could make one of our own with some of the great new items in the store this month.

Asparagus is in season now. A Bon Appetit magazine survey a few years ago named asparagus America’s favorite vegetable. With only 4 calories per spear and lots of fiber, Vitamin C and Folate, asparagus is not only delicious, it is very nutritious. Enjoy some tonight!

Artichokes are another early spring delight that we
have in the store now!

Anette’s Chocolate Factory of Napa is new to NP. Look for their award-winning Micro Brew Firey Beer Brittle and Miro Brew Beer Brittle, both made with dark micro brew ale, and salty Spanish peanuts. We are also carrying some of their sauces, including Chocolate Cabernet Wine Sauce and Butterscotch Scotch Sauce.

From the Artisan Salt Company we are carrying 6 specialty salts perfect for you gourmet chefs out there. Salts include Alaea Hawaiian Sea Salt, Fleur de Sel, Fumee de Sel, Himalayan Pink Salt, Murray River Flake Salt, and
Salish Smoked Salt.

We hope to see you in the store soon, and thanks for your support.
