Local Sprouts Cooperative focuses on providing creative local and organic food.  This is our full menu for catering and our community supported kitchen (CSK).   We serve local and seasonal foods, so our menu changes through the seasons.  Look at our seasonal menus to find our latest offerings. The CSK draws from this menu and offer weekly selections with more specials.
