Our food starts with these women
Hey Friends,
March is Women’s History Month, and I want to say a special thank you to some of the women who quite literally grow this business.
Before anything becomes hot sauce, mustard, caramel, or baked goods, it starts in a field, in the woods, or in a barn. And always with someone doing a whole lot of work.
In our case, a lot of that someone is women.
These are farmers who grow the peppers, onions, and herbs, and raise the goats that give us the ingredients we cook with every day.
Valerie Woodhouse - Honey Field Farm
Sarah Voiland - Red Fire Farm
Miranda Kleis - Familia Farm
Daryll Breau - Ayers Brook Farm
Hannah Blackmer - Field Stone Farm
Laura Ramos - Quill Hill Farm
Rachel Nevitt - Full Moon Farm
Karen Trubitt - True Love Farm
If you’ve ever opened a bottle of our hot sauce or a jar of caramel and thought “wow,” the credit absolutely starts with them.

Running a food company that sources directly from small farms means we actually get to know the people behind the ingredients. These women are wonderful, thoughtful, funny, wildly capable humans who care deeply about their land, their animals, and their communities.
They also make our food taste better before we even touch it.
Because good ingredients make good food and that’s really the whole trick.
So if you want to taste the results of their work, here are a few good places to start:
Hot sauces made with Vermont-grown peppers

Whole seed mustards packed with local garlic scapes and peppers

When you buy from us, you’re supporting these farms too.
Which feels like a pretty good reason to restock the pantry.
