Strawberries - Tonnemaker Hill Farm, Royal City, WA - Benson strawberries are a "Desert" variety - they are smaller and the flavor is more concentrated than those grown in wetter climates. These are early-season strawberries, available in June and July!
Asparagus - Royal Produce, Royal City, WA - Enjoy fresh spring asparagus during its short window of availability! Asparagus is one of those hyper-seasonal items but we'll have these tender, green shoots around for through the end of May - soak in this beautiful sign of spring while you can!
Red Radishes - Griffin Creek Farm, Skagit Valley, WA - Try sliced radishes with butter and salt! We also enjoy pickling these fresh radishes for tacos or this Tofu Banh Mi recipe.
Rhubarb - Hidden Acres Farm, Green Bluff, WA and Ralph’s Greenhouse, Mt. Vernon, WA and Stonesthrow Farm, Chattaroy, WA - It's time for the annual strawberry rhubarb pie, rhubarb muffins, or Rhubarb Shrub! The nostalgic bright pink, puckery stalk is here!
Bok Choy - Big Sage Organics, Othello, WA - Bok choy are the most darling of vegetables 🥺 They're a type of Chinese cabbage that has a flavor similar to spinach. Try this Garlicy Bok Choy recipe or this Black Pepper, Tofu, and Boy Choy!
Spinach - Spring Time Farm, Everson, WA - Spinach is a nutrient rich green that has a sweet flavor with a hint of bitterness. Pair this crisp green with nuts and fruits for a flavorful and fresh salad. Eat spinach cooked to be able to absorb more of its iron and calcium - we love it on pizza, in soups, in curries, or in smoothies.

PASTURED CHICKEN SHARE | chicken breast + thighs - windy hills farm, walla walla, wa - This organic, pasture raised chicken is some of the highest quality, most sustainable, and best tasting chicken you can find. The chickens are rotated on fresh certified organic land daily, where they are free to forage, roam, root, and exercise, being in their most natural state possible! While on this land the animals leave behind their fertilizer, which is full of so much good nutrients and helps restore the soil. This keeps the minerals in the land, rather than depleting it, and the animals get to live their best lives; a true symbiosis of nature.
