What’s In The Box? August 3-9

South by Northwest
From organic Andouille sausage and fresh okra to ripe yellow peaches, the soulful flavors of the South await this week, blending beautifully with Pacific Northwest produce like heirloom tomatoes, Hakurei turnips, mixed summer squash, baby beets, broccolini, and salt and pepper cucumbers. This comforting box also includes Pain au Levain bread, farm-fresh eggs and locally-grown Shiso apricots and Triple Crown blackberries to complement the most-classic, down-home spread. Enjoy!

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

Skagit River Ranch Andouille Sausage

This pig has some kick: spiced with fresh-cracked pepper, hot paprika and cayenne pepper, this flavorful sausage from our friends at the Skagit River Ranch in Sedro-Woolley is crafted from their famous all-natural pork. These pampered pigs roam outdoors in certified-organic pasture land to root and dig, thriving on a diet of flax seed, corn and wheat.

Fresh Summer Fruit

Gorgeous yellow peaches, Shiso apricots and Triple Crown blackberries grown locally in the Northwest.

Pain au Levain Bread

This slightly-nutty, slightly-sweet sourdough bread epitomizes French country-style baking with a chewy crust and light, airy interior. Baked by our favorite bakery in Snohomish, this traditional Pain au Levain is crafted using the bakery’s own sourdough starter.

Yalumba Y Series Unwooded Chardonnay 2021

This pale straw-colored Chardonnay from South Australia features aromas of fresh tropical fruits and spring blossom. The palate is long and creamy, with flavors reminiscent of grapefruit and barbecued green mango, as well as spicy lemon myrtle and a savory edge with flinty notes thanks to the wine’s wild fermentation. A refreshing, lip-smacking acidity gives this wine lovely length with a savory, textural finish.

Farm Fresh Eggs

As they spend lots of time outdoors in their run, our small flock of heritage breed laying hens are enjoying succulent popweed pulled from the gardens along with an extra helping of grain to supplement their diet to give us fresh eggs in beautiful shades of brown, beige and cream.

La Boîte Bernise Spice Blend

Inspired by classic Béarnaise sauce, and made with tarragon, onion, vinegar powder and other spices, this mix is perfect for fish, grilled meats and salads.

Fresh Organic Greens

Crisp iceberg and Little Gem lettuces.

Seasonal Organic Fruit & Vegetables

This week’s beautiful bounty of summer produce also includes okra, broccolini, salt and pepper cucumbers, sweet onions, heirloom tomatoes, baby red beets, rainbow carrots, Hakurei turnips and mixed summer squash.

Fresh Garden Herbs

Fresh Italian parsley, chives and garlic scapes from the walled garden at Bella Luna.
