    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

    Lockwood Farm, Cowichan

     

    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

  • 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.

  • Wild Spring Salmon

    Sold By: Tuesday Food Hub

    Wild Spring Salmon, Haida Gwaii 

    Premium line-caught from the clear waters of Haida Gwaii. These northern west coast salmon are mostly scooped up for international export and fine-dining restaurants. Thankfully, The Pacific Prowler and the family that runs it calls Salt Spring home…

     

    From The Prowler: All our Salmon are caught off the west coast of Haida Gwaii (Area F) just as they return from the deep ocean. Caught at the peak of their lifecycle, they are extremely healthy. Rich in flavour, full of Omega oils, essential fats, and high in protein, you can’t begin to compare these beautiful fish to farmed fish or fish traveled down the coast that have begun to degrade as they enter the rivers to spawn. Because of the high quality of these west coast northern fish, they are usually sold to international fish markets and fine dinning restaurants around the world. We believe bringing these fish home for our surrounding communities, with 100% traceability, is an important part in keeping our food chain wild and local. All fish are brought in by hand one by one and promptly dressed, head off and guts removed, washed down and put in our flash freezer with temperatures to -35 to ensure the fish remains the highest of quality.

     

    Sold individually by weight and piece. (Collar, Mid, Tail)- Pst… chefs go for the collar as it is the richest.

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

     

    Ingredients: milk, cane sugar, cocoa powder, salt, carrageenan gum, natural flavour, vitamin D3

  • Island Bees Honey

    Sold By: Tuesday Food Hub

    Island Bees Honey, Saltspring Island 

     

    Island Bees honey is raw, unfiltered and collected entirely from flowers on Salt Spring Island. You may find it is not as clear as regular store-bought honey and it may have occasional specks of hive materials that you would not see in honey that is more refined and processed. All the enzymes, propolis, and pollen grains are retained, so Island Bees honey is in the same state as you would find naturally in the beehive.

     

    Most honey produced in Canada comes from huge fields of flowering monoculture like clover,
    canola, blueberries and alfalfa.  In contrast, much of Salt Spring Island is forested and therefore, the number of flowers available to bees is much less, so Salt Spring bees collect honey from wildflowers and blooming trees instead.

    This means that Salt Spring Island bees don’t make much surplus honey, but it also means that their honey and pollen is not as exposed to all of the harmful things that come along with modern intensive farming.

    True Grain Mill, Cowichan 

     

    True Grain white flour is proudly made with organic BC grown wheat. True Grain white flour has not been bleached or treated in the milling process. Regardless of one’s stance on organics, most people are amazed to discover that unless the package specifically says “unbleached” and “untreated” there are many chemicals that are allowed to be added. These agents do not need to be declared under current Canadian labelling laws for “white flour”. Some examples are chlorine, benzoyl peroxide, ammonium chloride, azodicarbonamide, and l-cysteine. True Grain flour is always organic, and never bleached or treated.

    Ingredients: *BC unbleached white flour, niacin, iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid. *Organic

    “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.

    Its pleasantly mild and nutty taste and exceptional nutritional density make it an outstanding addition to a wide variety of foods and beverages including smoothies, energy bars, sprinkled on salads or in dressings, soups, stews, any baked goods recipes like muffins or pancake mixes (at a 25% hemp to 75% flour ratio), or enjoy it straight out of the bag!

     

    Recommended to store in cool (refrigerated or frozen), dark and airtight conditions in order to minimize oxidation and prolong its shelf life.
