I’ve purchased some within the last year from Mississippi Market — but I have no idea if they can get some now. Might want to give them a call, though.
Oops — correction. Saw it (and bought it) at the St. Paul Farmer’s Market. The vendor was surprised I knew what it was. Sorry for the wild goose chase.
