    On Saturday afternoon we attended the annual Old Algiers Riverfest, a fun, free  event held in Algiers Point just a short walk from the Canal Street/Algies Ferry landing. As always, Algiers Riverfest offered great live music, plenty of delicious food and beautiful art, crafts, jewelry, clothing, pottery and many other items created and designed in the New Orleans metro area. As usual, we saw a few familiar faces and had the opportunity to make new acquaintances, all of whom we excited to hear about Sheaux Fresh. It was great to see people supporting local businesses.
    On Sunday morning we attended a reception honoring a good friend of ours for his volunteer activities as a Tulane alumnus. The event was held at the beautiful Audubon Tea Room in Audubon Park. The weather was perfect, the banjo quartet was charming, the food was delicious and our friend gave an emotionally stirring acceptance speech. We were in excellent company and had a great time meeting new people, catching up with old acquaintances and telling everyone about Sheaux Fresh! We also learned a great deal about how other people are eating locally and farming in their own back yards. One gentleman shared how much his wife loves growing vegetables in their yard in the city and keeping bees on their farm in the country. Someone else reminisced about his childhood on a cattle and chicken farm and how much he loved fresh eggs. We even met someone who makes it a point to purchase everything she possibly can from local growers.
    Unfortunately we were unable to attend the New Orleans Food Co-op's Paint Party, but we will definitely make it a point to support their next event.

    We believe everyone should have access to fresh, healthy food. In most cases, the best way to get the freshest food possible is to buy it locally. Sheaux Fresh is here to the New Orleans community do just that.
