The collective’s staff will pick up the boxes from Clearlake and have co-op member pick ups at their site from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursdays.

“We’re excited to be part of this growing movement and to provide this service for our local Middletown area residents,” Jonathan Donahue said.

The collective, located at 21158 Calistoga St. (Highway 29) offers many herbal and massage remedies and hosts a variety of practitioners.

Members can order CSA boxes, locally baked breads from Main Street Bakery in Kelseyville and designate the Middletown pick up location through the Co-op’s website at www.lakeco-op.org.

Celebrating over one year in community, the Lake County Community Cooperative is 300 members strong and envisions cultivating an evolving community by nurturing values of social, economic and environmental responsibility. The co-op wishes to support our local farmers and producers and provide a forum for community activities.

The presentation begins at 7 p.m. on Friday and 6 p.m. on Saturday.

These fun-filled evenings feature pageantry, music, theater and food from the period. Students have recreated a medieval castle in the school’s multipurpose room and will serve a meal of wassail cup, pottage, roasted turkey, sausage, string beans and sweets to the noble lords and ladies of Lake County.

Following the feast, students will present a dramatic theatrical performance followed by musical entertainment featuring members of the Lower Lake High School Music Department.

Tickets for the Renaissance Affair are only $25 and may be purchased at the Lower Lake High School attendance office.
