Green Kunming would be happy to accept old batteries as long as they are not leaking or dangerous in any way. You can give them to the worker at the Oasis Gift Shop around the corner from the Yunda Paul's Shop. We will take care of getting them to the proper recycling facility.

The costs for dairy items will be quite competitive. For meat, however, we are unfortunately limited to dealing with only one organic supplier. And for them, this is really only a side business as veggies are their main focus. So if we want organic meats, it's gonna cost us. Sausages seemed the best way to deal with meats, because we have to buy the whole animal at once, and this way, quantities can be equally divided as well as frozen. The cost is quite unclear at the moment, but of course cheaper is better. We will see how it turns out. And if it does end up just being too expensive, then we'll just have to do away with the idea and stick with vegetarian organics. Or maybe we can have a Green Kunming community BBQ every once and a while.

Those interested in organic foods in Kunming may be happy to hear that Green Kunming may be adding organic mozzarella, yogurt, artichoke hearts and other treats to the bi-weekly veggie pick-up.

We also may have an opportunity to have fresh sausages made from organic meats. For now, they would be lamb sausages made with pork casings. They might cost somewhere between 70 and 100 yuan per half-kilo order (approx. 5 or 6 good-sized links.) Pork sausages might be available soon thereafter for about 50-80 yuan per half kilo.

The sausage maker has made some very delicious sausages for us before. I need to hear from as many of you as possible to gauge approximately how many of these we would need each week. So please let me know if you would be interested in organic sausages.

And if you are interested in joining the Green Kunming Organic Food Club, please subscribe at www.greenkunming.com and purchase you credits online with Paypal or at the Oasis Gift Shop around the corner from the Yunnan University Paul's Shop.

Hey all. Big thanks to everyone who showed up last night. It was an amazing event. Thanks also to Juliette and Matu at DT Bar who made it all possible. Thanks to Dr. Detrano for being the one out there on the ground saving lives. Thanks to all the bands last night and Jeff for helping emcee.

Though we didn't have as many big donors as last year, the event itself broke all previous records. Thanks to all the vendors who raised about 13,000. Thanks to all the tickets sales volunteers who brought close to 18,000. Thanks to the super generous people who won their auctions and raised another 7,600 and to all the local businesses who donated all the awesome prizes. And to all the donors who gave cash donations nearing 15,000. In all we've raised over 53,000 so far but there are still donations coming in. If you would like to contribute online follow this link, or if the link doesn't show up you can find it in the story above...

Thank you, Valhalla, and thank you for all the efforts and donations from all these great businesses in Kunming like Valhalla.

I'm leaving this review for one of my staff. She just return from Dali and fell in love with this little restaurant in Dali. Very nice owners cooking up delicious and healthy Chinese cuisine with an open kitchen and local "organic" ingredients. I'll have to try it out myself next time.

If you're looking for a slightly higher end place serving local foods in a nice outdoor atmosphere, you'll dig this place

I'm disappointed in myself for even considering giving this place another chance. I wanted to give my 4-month old a chance to see some live animals and I was sure that there was no way that the Kunming Zoo was as bad as it was 15 years ago. Somehow it was worse. It's disgraceful that with all of the changes that this city has undergone in the last two decades that this zoo still lacks any sense of decency or morality.

At nailer and tallamerican, I'm sorry to hear about your recent experiences. We wash everything with purified water and make all of our food fresh daily from whole ingredients in order to avoid any problems. We will review our procedures to assure that we continue to provide the safest and healthiest menu options possible. I hope you'll give us another try and I'd be happy to buy you a coffee if you are around any morning.

@GoKunming, it would be nice if there was a zero star option for reviews so that business owners can contribute without having to rate ourselves. I kind of feel like a d-bag giving myself stars 1-5. For some reason I settled on 4 as the least douchey ;).
