home grown | local caught

Aside from your cuisines appearance and flavor, is the elegance, honesty and beauty expressed in the process by which you obtained it.  Super Markets, product labels, and store shelves are actively marketing misleading terms like Organic, Certified Naturally Grown, Sustainable, Farm to Table, Free-range, Grass-fed, Hormone-free, Non-GMO, Fair trade. With all these buzzwords flying around us its hard to truly know what to believe.

If you want to side step all the super market trends and know exactly where your food is coming from then cultivating your own garden and fishing for local seafood is the right path. Every detail and step toward the final cooked meal is carefully planned, pursued and realized. From composting your own soil to making a perfect cast to a rising fish. To acquire good results you need to be dedicated, patient and to spend a lot of time and energy in you pursuit. You get out what you put in.
