A Growing Garden = Fresh Veggies and Herbs! (+This Week's Meat & Veggies)

Seeing our garden grow through the seasons always brings us so much happiness, and we get to enjoy the process thanks in large part to the diligent hands that have been working tirelessly, come rain or shine (or pandemic!), and without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or industrial fertilizers. Our weekly harvest now includes an abundance and variety of head lettuce, mixed lettuce, Swiss chard, kale, watercress, fresh herbs, and spinach.

Sustainably raised in Norway where they are doing what they can to protect our seas and share their long traditions with the rest of us. Their waters are pristine and so are their fish and the Kvarøy Arctic team is working tirelessly to keep it that way. “We must leave the environment in the same or better shape than when we began.” —Alf-Gøran Knutsen, CEO of Kvarøy  Arctic. Norwegians have been smoking fish about as long as there have been fish. In fact, it’s a source of cultural pride and an art form. At Kvarøy Arctic, smoking sustainably raised salmon comes naturally. Pure Atlantic Salmon is seasoned, gently cured, then traditionally cold smoked at 82°F over locally sourced wood chips to naturally enhance the cured fish with flavor that will fill the mouth with citrus, salt, and fish oils with a scent of pine needles on the nose. We also offer a line of hot smoked salmon that uses a process that delicately cooks and flavors the fish. Again, delightful. "There is no wrong way to smoke a salmon (when you have over 1,000 years of experience)." —Kvarøy Arctic Team
