The Scallops are gigantic and candy sweet. A bit pricy this time of year but I couldn't resist. $65/lb. Call to order, 708-660-1100

A nice piece about the Illinois farm that our turkeys (along with a plethora of other things) come from, with a shout out from Doug and Beth!

Thanks friends, keep up the good work - it is pretty much universally agreed Garden Gate farm turkeys are outstanding!

Fairbury farm family finds purpose in land stewardship, community connection, and faith When I arrived at Garden Gate Farms in Fairbury, Illinois for another farmer interview, I immediately knew it would be a very interesting story. It was a cool spring

Here is a thing we also do. Whee! Pictures!

Today we've accomplished two things we've been meaning to.

1st: We're open again on Mondays. The food doesn't get fresher while we are closed so we're here for you.

2nd: We have gotten approval to accept EBT cash as a form of payment with full EBT acceptance to come. This one is big for us. We are the kind of store these benefits were designed to be spent in. Convenience store oranges notwithstanding.

Call to order or just to chat. 708-660-1100

Holy summertime fish, Oak Park!!!

This here is the first Copper River salmon we've been able to put hands on this year. Sockeye comes from one of the most sustainable wild fisheries around. When there aren't enough fish, they just stop fishing them. Pretty simple, right?

We'll have them for as long as they last so shop early and shop often. Just $36/lb and waiting for you. Call to order 708-660-1100
