MARKET SPOTLIGHT
U-Konserve
Based here in Sausalito, U-Konserve is the result of two mothers’ struggle to be environmentally conscious as they packed school lunches. They knew the disposable bags and containers they used were headed to landfill. They took action and launched U-konserve in 2008, initially offering reusable school lunch gear. Demand increased, and customers began asking for products designed for a variety of uses. U-Konserve is a certified B Corporation and meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance.
Mama Tong
Lindsay Ott came to the Bay Area in 2013 with her young son and a background in organic farming and midwifery. She understood a new mother’s needs and fused her passions into postpartum nutrition. In her quest to find kindred spirits, Lindsay contacted Jane Lin, owner of Mama Tong. Jane trained Lindsay in Chinese postpartum soups, indicating that she was ready to move on. Lindsay purchased the business and relaunched Mama Tong soups using organic ingredients and the highest quality Chinese herbs. ‘Tong’ means soup in Chinese!

DRIVER’S INSIGHTS
Artists@Issaquah: Art in the time of COVID
The quarantine may have forced Artists@Issaquah to cancel their show this month, but it doesn’t hinder the floating home community’s creativity. In fact, one of Issaquah’s artists, Jim Woessner, decided to “make lemonade” during the pandemic shelter in place. He collaborated with his friend and writer, John Hewitt, to write and publish a novella. Learn more about their new book, The Roadkill Saga, and about Artists@Issaquah!

THE DELI
Our deli counter is open and loaded with fresh baked goods, meats, cheeses, salads, soups, and casseroles. NOW AVAILABLE: All juices and smoothies, as well as coffee, chai, and draft kombucha from the Deli. Two of our favorite sandwiches are available as grilled paninis to-go: the Cuban and the Caprese. Starting Wednesday, September 26, our hot bar foods — Nepalese specialties from Bini’s Kitchen — will be available to-go! The rest of our made-to-go menu is not currently available due to COVID-19. We will continue to expand our deli offerings while maintaining a safe environment for customers and employees.
AROUND THE TABLE AT DRIVER’S
Innovative chefs, entrepreneurs and community leaders share ideas and insights about food policy, nutrition, cooking and other topics around our community cafe table. Come join us for an upcoming Driver’s Market event.
