Local Virginia Produce Availability

We strive whenever possible to use fresh local ingredients grown in the Shenandoah valley of Virgina. We can't get vanilla beans or cocoa from Virginia, or we would. For those kinds of ingredients, we buy organic and fair trade. But our focus remains on local food, in season.

To that end, we're creating a comprehensive list of local Virginia food availability. You'll notice that there are many blank lines on the list below, and that's because we haven't located a local supplier for that ingredient. If you're a farmer or a grower, and you've got local Virginia produce to offer, please let Lynsie know.
