I don't understand how August is here already. It seems like just yesterday we were getting pumped up for strawberry season and we're already looking at peaches! 

I wanted to celebrate this last month of summer by having a contest! For months, you have been coming to the markets and talking to our market team about all the ways that you like to use our products. Some of you have even been posting pictures on Instagram (thank you!) and I want to give you the opportunity to share those use ideas with everyone!

Here are the rules.

- Now through August 27th, take a picture of your favorite jar of Small Batch Kitchen item (spread, salt, chutney, BBQ sauce - whatever!) along with a how you used it (wafffles, cake, burgers, fresh veggies - the sky is the limit!) The picture in this post is a good example of what we're looking for. 

- Email or message that picture over to us (sheila@thesmallbatchkitchen.com) and on August 19th, we'll post the photos to Facebook. Please be sure include the following in your message:

       * Name and Email Address (Email addresses will not be shared)

       * Where you found us (Name of Farmer's Market, Store, etc.)

       * Description of recipe 

       * Picture that has BOTH the finished food AND the Small Batch Kitchen product

- From August 28th-31st we'll be having a voting contest where the picture with the most likes (loves and wows are accepted, too!) will win. There will be two runner up prizes awarded as well.

Here are the prizes!

First Place - Our Cheese Slate Gift Crate with your choice of 3 Spreads! This crate has a cheese slate board (and chalk), set of 3 stainless steel cheese knives, set of 3 bamboo serving spoons, and your choice of 3 spreads. ($70 retail value)
