Local Is Better! • Local Roots! • True to our farmers and local producers! • Local sources guarantee the freshness of our ingredients.
Recognizing that local farms continue to struggle to survive, we feel that it is necessary to do our part to help them. Our supplier network continually grows as we reach out to local producers, thereby helping maintain our agricultural community. We believe that by using local meats and produce, we are able to offer you a better product. Less time in transit equals fresher ingredients. You also have the benefit of knowing the source of your foods, supporting our region’s rural landscapes, and preserving the future of the working farms on which we all depend.
