    Why we love Cowichan Milk Company

    – Cowichan dairy cows are grass fed (from their own fields) and are supplemented with a little grain in the winter months.

    –  The pasteurization method they use is slow and low. It is the lowest temperature of pasteurization that is legal in Canada (closest to raw milk folks!). It is heated just enough to kill unwanted bacteria but preserves the healthy Omega-3 fatty acids, essential minerals, and fat-soluble vitamins A, D3, and K2.

    – Their farm is a circular operation all on the same site. They grow the grass that feeds the cows and the manure goes right back into the fields for fertilization.

    –  The milk is bottled the day before you receive it on Salt Spring. Any fresher and you would have to be under the cow!

    –   The vanBovens are a third- generation (and going) family of milk farmers.

    Cowichan Milk Company’s dairy is pasteurized “low and slow”, leaving it as close to its natural state as possible.

     

    Ingredients: Milk, Vitamin D3.

     

    Low-pasteurized means that Cowichan Milk will not have the long shelf life of most milks, which are pasteurized with the “high temperature, short time” method. Use within a week of opening.

  • Large Eco Eggs, Lockwood Farm

    Run by a passionate young husband and wife team (along with their kids, barn cats, adorable puppies and pigs) in the Cowichan Valley.

    They believe that healthy eggs come from happy chickens. Raised with love… and grubs!

    Insects are a very natural part of a hen’s diet, yet conventional feed has not included insect protein in it’s regular ration. Instead the industry has looked primarily to soy. Soy crops can grow 356 lbs of edible protein per acre, whereas insect protein has the potential to grow upwards of 100,000 lbs of edible protein per acre.

     

    Hen house is run entirely from solar power.

     

    High in Iron & Vitamin A

    7g of protein per egg

    Corn free

    Non-GMO

    Soy Free

  • Grass-Based, Lean Ground Beef

    Vanvalley Farm, Cowichan Valley

     

    • Single origin (one cow)
    • Growth hormone free
    • Antibiotic-free
    • Soy Free
    • Grass based diet- with grain supplementation in the winter.
    • Plastic–free packaging (only butcher paper).
    • Short, trauma-free transport to the butcher
    • Sold frozen

     

    Not only can you toss the packaging in the compost (goodbye plastic!), this Holstein beef (raised for dairy) is sustainable and delicious.

    Why do we raise Angus and Hereford cows for beef and Holsteins for dairy? It is primarily because the former fatten quickly on grain and can get to market quicker and cheaper (less than two years). Holstein cows are generally raised for dairy production, so they lead very different lives.

     

    Why eating well-sourced dairy beef make sense:

     

    Quality:
    These dairy cows have been carefully bread over generations and meticulously monitored to ensure they can lead a life without needing antibiotics. There are zero growth hormones as they are not being rushed to fatten up for slaughter. Grass-fed dairy cows have spent five times more time spent roaming on pasture and developing intramuscular fat. And then, after the cows are weaned from milking, all of the energy that had previously gone into producing milk gets dispersed throughout the animal’s body. What you get is this super delicious and complex flavor you cannot find with conventional beef. It’s really unbelievable.
    It’s all the rage in the culinary world –you will see retired dairy beef on the menus of San Sebastián’s three-Michelin-starred Arzak, Paris’s famed market La Grande Épicerie, and the Basque restaurant Sagardi in London.

     

    Sustainability:
    While a single beef cow typically turns into 600 pounds of meat, the dual-purpose cows—those used to produce dairy and later beef—produce about 80,000 pounds of food in total, including milk, cream, butter, and beef. True- they do live a longer life and need more feed, but it is a more sustainable approach to animal husbandry.

  • Freshly Roasted Almond Butter

    From the creators:

    “Taste the Island”
    We’re Islanders, and while Vancouver Island is a big place, it doesn’t feel that way. When we started making our all natural almond butter made with 100% almonds, we sold it in small batches to local businesses — our friends, mostly.
    Turns out our Islander Almond Butter is so good that everyone wants a taste of the Island. You don’t have to be an Islander to love our Almond Butter, but we like to think that the Island air and slow-living help make it so good.

    Ingredients: Organic Medjool Dates

     

    Qualities: Dates are, by general consensus, the world’s oldest known fruit. They have been grown throughout the Middle East and North Africa for over 6,000 years, a dietary staple and incorporated into almost every meal or eaten alone. Ancient cultures referred to date palms as “the tree of life”. Traditionally, dates were used to break fasts as they have high carbohydrate and sugar contents, immediately raising blood sugars and providing instantaneous energy. Medjool dates are one of the largest dates and considered far superior to any other type of date in terms of flavor and texture.

    Organic  Red Soy Miso, USA

     

    This miso is aged naturally without temperature control for 12 months in four-ton, hand-crafted Cypress, Redwood, or Fir barrels. The high soybean content in relation to the rice koji (grain inoculated with aspergillus spores) makes it necessary to age this variety through four full seasons because soybeans are more difficult to ferment, with their high protein and fat content, than the high-carbohydrate grains. This gives the aspergillus spores and lactobacillus bacteria sufficient time to completely break down the complex protein and fat molecules into their more digestible constituents.

     

    Ingredients: Organic whole soybeans, organic rice koji (organic rice koji spores, sea salt, water)

    Lentils are low in sodium and saturated fat, and high in potassium, fiber, folate, and plant chemicals called polyphenols that have antioxidant activity. Red lentils are the fastest cooking lentil, but they lose their shape easily and become mushy, making them unsuitable for recipes that call for green or brown lentils. Red lentils are commonly used to thicken dishes.

  • Brown Basmati Rice – Organic

    Brown Organic Basmati, India

     

    Brown Basmati contains all eight essential amino acids, folic acid, and is very low in sodium and has no cholesterol. Literally translated as “full of aroma” in Hindi, basmati rice has been described as having the aroma of sun-baked wood and flowers.

     

    Basmati tastes like no other rice on earth. Unlike ordinary long grain rice the light, fluffy texture of Basmati’s long, slender grains offers the palate a totally different experience in terms of mouth feel and taste (distinctive, unique and slightly “nutty”).

  • Dried Elderberries, Organic

    Organic Dried Elderberries, Croatia

     

    Per 100g price is $9.50

     

    Qualities: Elderberries naturally contain vitamins A, B, and C, and they have a long history of use in traditional European medicine. The berries and flowers of the Elder plant are most commonly used to boost the immune system, improve heart health, treat coughs, and cold and flu symptoms.

    Common Use: Elderberries can be used in healing teas, tinctures, and syrups. They are always best consumed cooked, as cooking neutralizes the astringency and toxins that are naturally occurring in the seeds and stems of the berries. Elderberries are often combined with Echinacea. They have also been used in cordials, wines, and even ketchup recipes. The dried berries can be to muffin or pancake recipes for a flavour similar, but less sweet, to that of blueberries.

    Storage: Store in a cool, dark, dry place in a sealed container.

    Safety: We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using any herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.
