Wichita Food Co-op Picnic July 20, 2008
We had 35 folks attend our July picnic, lots of great food, and good, kind of warm, weather. We were busy and forgot the camera, none the less, lots of great memories. Burgers off the grill included: emu, venison, beef and buffalo. In addition there was a lamb shoulder roast, emu roast and buffalo arm roast. Many great, fresh fruit and garden salads rounded out the menu. Highlights included fresh peach cobbler and fresh raspberry pie.
