What's in the box this week?


Slow Autumn Mornings

As October settles over the farm, this week’s box invites you to slow down and savor the simple pleasures of a cozy autumn morning. Maple-kissed breakfast sausage, farm-fresh eggs, and warm Gruyère cheese bread set the table for a hearty breakfast, while toasted coconut granola, crisp Bella Luna orchard apples, and crunchy biscotti offer something sweet to enjoy with your morning coffee. A lightly sparkling pear perry adds a festive touch, and a colorful harvest of tender greens, sweet peppers, root vegetables, and garden herbs brings plenty of inspiration for delicious meals throughout the week. It’s everything you need to greet the day, one delicious bite at a time.

Here’s what you’ll find in your box this week:

Skagit River Ranch Breakfast Sausage
With a flavor profile that includes hints of sweet maple syrup and savory spices, these incredible breakfast sausages are made from the all-natural pork raised on the Skagit River Ranch in Sedro-Woolley. These pampered pigs roam outdoors in certified-organic pasture land to root and dig, thriving on a diet of flax seed, corn and wheat.

Carnation Farms Toasted Coconut Granola
From our friends at Carnation Farms, this Toasted Coconut Granola is made with organic, gluten-free oats grown right here in the Pacific Northwest using regenerative farming practices that support healthy soil and clean waterways. Lightly sweet, nutty, and perfectly crisp, it’s wonderful layered with yogurt and fruit, sprinkled over smoothie bowls, or enjoyed by the handful with your morning coffee.

Gruyère Cheese Bread & Biscotti
Made in nearby Snohomish by our favorite bakery, this freshly-baked loaf balances sweet, nutty Gruyère with a light, crisp crust. It is absolutely wonderful re-warmed in the oven—just sprinkle with a few drops of water and bake at 350° for about 15 minutes. Also included: Crispy, crunchy biscotti for dunking into your morning coffee!

Nashi D’Anjou Non-Alcoholic Perry

Crafted by Vashon Island’s Nashi Orchards using 100% organically grown D’Anjou pears from their Sakura Ridge orchard in Hood River, Oregon, this lightly sparkling perry is beautifully balanced with gentle sweetness and a soft, full mouthfeel.

Farm Fresh Eggs
Our small flock of heritage-breed Black Copper Maran, Ameraucana, and Delaware hens provides us with fresh eggs in beautiful shades of brown and green. As October brings cooler days and signs of autumn to the farm, the hens still spend plenty of time outdoors, happily pecking, scratching, and foraging in the fresh fall air.

Seasonal Organic Greens
This week’s gorgeous bounty of greens includes Italian Swiss chard and tender Row 7 Seeds baby lettuces.

Bella Luna Fall Apples
Liberty apples from the orchards here at Bella Luna.

Fresh Organic Fruits & Vegetables
This week’s selection of produce also includes Pink Rose cabbage, baby red potatoes, golden beets, red-cored Chantenay carrots, Jimmy Nardello and Gatherer’s Gold sweet peppers, sweet yellow onion, and fennel.

Garden-Grown Herbs
Italian flat-leaf parsley, thyme, fennel flowers and garlic from the walled garden and middle field here at Bella Luna.
