The Skagit Table is Teaming Up with Genuine Skagit Valley

We’re now members of Genuine Skagit Valley! Look for their logo going forward to help identify which of our items contain local products!

We are so blessed to be in such a beautiful and fertile valley. The Skagit Table has always celebrated the bounty and beauty of the Skagit Valley so it just made sense to partner up with Genuine Skagit Valley, another organization honoring what our valley has to offer.

Genuine Skagit Valley is focused on increasing awareness and consumption of Skagit Valley agricultural products. They are the team behind the recent book release Genuine Skagit Cooking featuring recipes from around the valley using local produce. Through promotion of distinctive farm-raised flavors, culture, and heritage they aim to sustain farming in the Skagit Valley for generations to come.

You can learn more about Genuine Skagit Valley here and more about their cookbook here!

Here at the Skagit Table, we have always placed the utmost importance on sourcing locally, and we want to make it easier for you as our customers to eat as locally as possible! We don’t just source locally, we source hyper locally. We know our farmers by name, we know their stories, and why they farm. We find farmers who share our values for nutrient dense food and sustainable growing practices.

Supporting local farms means supporting the local economy and ensuring we keep the Skagit Valley a flourishing hub of produce and small businesses. Our mission is very much in line with what Genuine Skagit Valley promotes. We love to see local farms flourishing and local consumers flourishing as a result of eating such quality ingredients.

If you’ve been in the storefront, you know that the items we offer can be different every day and one of the main reasons is we are constantly crafting new recipes using what’s available locally and seasonally!

It has been difficult in the past to highlight which of our products contain local produce as it requires a lot of labor to update labels each time a local ingredient is used, so we will start adding Genuine Skagit Valley Stickers to any of our meals or products that include local products! We’re very excited to try out this new system of adding an easily identifiable logo that allows local conscious shoppers to quickly find our locally sourced items!
