FLAGSHIP FARMER HOODIE
Hello Chimacum Corner Community!
I can’t speak for everybody, but I can say that my head is in a hat and hood of some kind for probably 90% of winter. Keeping the chill off your neck is a blessing during “the long grey.” Second to boots, a heavy duty hoodie is an essential tool of the Washington winter. The Corner has doubled down on this fact, reloading on the favorite OG flagship “Farmer Hoodie,” that is a stellar base layer to any hard working individual of the outdoors. Find these threads in the merch cabinet, along with our rainbow array of the keepin’ it local beanies. The Produce Porch is bringing an equally beautiful palette at the present, expertly mounded, merchandised, and color coded by your favorite produce department in the county. With the barrage of the holiday season upon us, make sure y’all take care of yourselves, come grab some of this nutritious abundance provided by our farmer folks. And bundle up with some corner store swag.
Shake Yer Pom Poms
Fresh from California, we’ve had an amazing run of pomegranates, with enough arils to give you the chills! That’s right, the “seed” you eat from a pom is technically an “aril.” These geodesic treasure boxes of delight are a true fall specialty, get them while they last! Perfect as a topper for a local radicchio salad, along with the the new fromage from Mystery Bay Farm. This Fromage Blanc is a cool colab project using the cows milk from Dungeness Valley Creamery. We have also had a great run on pomegranate’s fall cousin, the persimmon! We have both the “Fuyu” type and the “Hachiya” type, and always in varying states of ripeness, whether you need one for today or want to wait for your desired ripeness at home. The prevalence of these fall specialties, paired with the advent of new crop citrus season (limequat, anyone?) has us feeling grateful for the fruity side of life at the Corner.

Corner Store Swag
FOR OUR 15TH BIRTHDAY! A fresh drop of the flagship, “Go Farmers!” Hoodies have landed!! And boy, do they have that heavyweight comfort and corner coziness. We proud to say these hoodies were hand silk screened by Erik of T-shirt Madness in his garage based shop in Ballard, WA. Erik has helped us produce every silk screened item we’ve sold since the beginning of the merch department! Upgrade your favorite farmhand’s cold weather gear game with this iconic sweater. They will stand the test of time! Just ask, your farmer or contractor friends, who have been putting these sweatshirts to the test for years. In addition to the return of the Hoodie, we also have a bevy of beanies in a whole plethora of colors with the standard “keepin’ it local” patch sewn in. We love to see all the wonderful places and humans our merch ends up with, and are grateful that our “store pride” extends beyond our staff and out into the community we serve.
Rosemary-Go-Round
The ink has dried on the plans for our Holiday baking program, and we are excited to herald the return of the “Ronde Entiere” (that’s french) of Rosemary Shortbread. Whole Rosemary Rounds are now available! And we plan to have them all the way through December. Also, landing later this week, we will have Cardamom Cake Rounds and whole Pumpkin Pies from the Corner Kitchen! All hail Hanni, the baking Queen!
Affordable Birdhousing
While the greenhouse is closed, there are still gardening surprises sprinkled throughout the Front Nursery zone. We have an amazingly eclectic mix of birdhouses from The Tough Sprout, a Port Townsend based multi-generational artisan project that upcycles mixed woods into quaint homes for local feathered friends. These make excellent holiday gifts for special folks in your life. Each one is unique, and there are some very groovy asymmetrical ones in the bunch this year! Check them out in the front tunnel on your next stop in.
Cuddle up with some savings this week, in addition to that cozy new sweatshirt! Take four dollars off the entire Pachamama line of coffee, whether you like Peruvian, Nicaraguan, or a French Roast blend - NOW $10.99 - WAS $14.99. With the murmurs of a sharp increase in coffee pricing due to the current international situation, lock in some value in your coffee cabinet while the getting is good. Ditto with cacao, we have some great value on both the “Beyond Good” and “Alter Eco” lines of chocolate. Beyond Good has a super unique Dates & Sesame bar, and a perennial staff favorite has always been the 70% cacao Brown Butter bar from Alter Eco. Coffee, chocolate, and cozy vibes, need we say more?
