Harvest of the Month
With Harvest of the Month, we encourage our customers to eat with the season and support regional resiliency. We commit to using a seasonal local product each month, including produce, meat, dairy, and value-added ingredients. We make these commitments months in advance, which supports market stability and crop planning for growers. This commitment model helps create predictable demand for suppliers, builds trust and regular communication with our distributors, and allows us to strategically forecast local food purchasing and generate educational/marketing materials to tell our story..
The Harvest of the Month program also highlights a subset of our local Vermont producers and features their products in dishes across our accounts throughout the month. The strength of our program lies in our long-standing relationships with a diverse set of wonderful local producers, and we are proud to spotlight them and their delicious products on our menus and at special pop-up events.
