BIG NEWS: we have perfected some family oral recipes (because we all know teta’s don’t write them down) and will be sampling and selling labneh, hummus and baba ganoush at @artemesiacheese cheese on Saturday May 16 between 11am-2pm. Stop by if you’re in the Beaver Valley, ON area.
On May 31, we will gather at @chinchincreemore and discuss the politics of zaatar while we blend, taste and sip in solidarity and community.

Event is sold out but we hope to do this again soon.
⬇️ Only a few keffiyehs left on the shop. Next restock unknown.
👓For the past year, I’ve worked with entrepreneurial Palestinians in Ramallah to secure Made in Palestine keffiyehs. These young men go to the factory (yes, that factory), purchase them and then mail it to me in Canada. Before this endeavour I had no idea there was a Palestinian Mail Authority or Palestinian stamps. While I would love for commerce and bank transfers to be easier, I love that we can make a tiny difference for these young men while SUNBURD uses the proceeds for Palestinian causes and gets authentic keffiyehs in your hands.
