Take a look at that 🤩 100% Vegan “Chicken” Wings, made from all Jackfruit, covered in rice paper & our Garlicky-Citrus sauce, and finished with a dehydrated heart of palm “bone”. 🌴

The peas from the Pea Tartare are from @2_peasinapodinc, and the Amorosa Pink Fingerling Potatoes from @weiserfamilyfarms 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾🙌

Let me just be honest, these peas are incredibly delicious. The peas we grew up on definitely weren’t grown with the kind of love that these are. We really wanted to highlight the taste of the peas when we cooked them down and didn’t add much. 😊

This dish was actually inspired by a dinner I had almost exactly 3 years ago, at the Greenhouse Tavern in Cleveland before they closed their doors. It was our first time off in a while, and were there with some friends for the night for a fun food show the next day. We had the best night sharing courses of the most incredible food for hours and drinking a lot of good wine and laughing way too hard. I remember walking through downtown Cleveland that night and being so grateful for that meal we all shared and memories made.

I hope through meals like this you can really feel the passion for what I create. I want you to be able to taste the love I put in my meals like I could taste in those farm fresh peas. And instead of worrying about having to make & clean up after dinner, you can have more time for making memories and just being present in the moment. ✨

Very proud to introduce this new family farm whose fresh produce we’ll be featuring in this week’s special, 2 Peas In A Pod! We will be featuring their English Shelling Peas, in our Spring Pea & Garlicky Lemon “Chicken” Wings. 😃

Lori Heal of @2_peasinapodinc has been selling produce at farmer’s markets since she was about 21, but farming has always been in her blood. Her father, Jim Spreafico, purchased the 629-acre ranch in the beautiful hills of Edna Valley in San Luis Obispo in 1976, when she was in sixth grade. By the 80’s, the mainly cattle-ranching property had began growing and selling produce. Like the other family farm we use, they were one of the original vendors when Farmer’s Markets were first made legal in the late 70’s.

In 1985 when no one was selling peas at the Farmer’s Markets, Lori and her late husband were the first to introduce Sugar Snap Peas. That’s when the name 2 Peas In A Pod came to be. Lori also started her company Mamma’s Preserves that makes many jams from their leftover produce and highlights the different varieties of berries that they grow, like her special Olallieberries. 😯

The agriculturists in them go back at least 4-5 generations, but it is now a 3rd generation family-run business with Lori’s son’s helping her run the property and sell produce at Farmers Markets in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. They are known for their peas, purple cauliflowers, berries, and the most beautifully colored variety of beans. You can feel the pride they have when reading them talk about their family business, and they truly encompass what we stand for at Heirloom – traditions inspired by food that are passed down through generations, and the joy that comes from sharing it with the community. ❤️

Their peas are used at some of the top restaurants in California and New York, and we are happy to say that we’ll be getting those same peas directly from them at the same farmers markets where they first began almost 40 years ago. We can’t wait to work with this great family and incorporate even more fresh produce to our meals. 🙌

I’m proud to announce that beginning this week, we will be featuring “Bloomsdale Spinach” from @weiserfamilyfarms !🥬

We will be using this Bloomsdale Spinach on all items including greens, and next week we’ll be introducing a Spring special highlighting their produce. Get your orders in today to enjoy this goodness! 😊

I was truly inspired by the story behind this amazing family farm, keep reading to find out more about them and their fascinating founder. 👨‍🌾✨

Sid Weiser began farming in the 1970’s after already leading a captivating life. He was awarded two Purple Hearts after fighting in World War 2, graduated premed from USC, and made jewelry while he was living in Mexico City for five years, which is also where he met his wife before the two moved to Los Angeles. After a retiring from a career as a high school chemistry teacher, where he also served as a gang counselor, he decided he wanted to start a farm.

The couple began by mostly growing apples to sell to juicers, but business wasn’t good the first several years and they were losing a lot of money, and the juice companies didn’t appreciate quality of produce. Thankfully, in the late 70’s, an executive order was put into place that saved farmers by allowing them to sell directly to people at farmers markets. Sid sent his youngest son Alex & friends to run the various farmers markets, and through Alex’s customer interactions they were able to curate a unique variety of produce. Many of the top chefs in Los Angeles center their menu around his produce and credit the Weiser Family Produce to helping them reach their success.

In the early 2000’s the two older siblings left their careers, Dan a Disney Marketing job and Esther an established teacher, and joined the family venture. Sadly, Sid passed last October due to liver cancer at 95 years old, but the farm’s legacy is being carried on through his children. You can trust that when we get produce from Weiser Family Farms that they truly put their hearts into growing it. 💚

We are so excited to try more produce from them, and are always on the looking for ways to support small family businesses like ours. 🤗
