Local Products and Sustainability

There is a lot of talk these days about using local products for quality, freshness and sustainability. Mike and I have been practicing this concept since we purchased the inn 15 years ago, however now there is more restaurants using this for promotion.

It is pretty simple, try to purchase within the local economy and seasonally. This offers a cycle of sustainable economy, and product. For example, if you purchase fresh tomatoes in August from a local farm, they are of better quality and freshness. Doing this also ensures the money stays within the local economy, and you are purchasing a product in season.

We have always use local purveyors for our fish, produce, even dairy. For example, we use a Vermont company for our bacon and sausage for breakfast. We often change our menu to reflect produce and fish that are in season. If available, we try to use organic as well. In the summer months, my mother has a large garden and grows organically maintained produce. She lives only a few miles away, so I can go there and pick daily to use for the restaurant. The bounty ranges from fresh green beans and zucchini blossoms for stuffing, to beautiful heirloom tomatoes!

So, if you dine with us in the summer, then come back in the winter and wonder where that dish was you had in the summer, now you know! Supporting local is a great way to enjoy great product, personalized service, and warm friendships. I highly recommend trying to hit a "farmer's market" in your area this year, you never know what you might find. You may even find you become "addicted" to the possibilities!

Buy local, eat fresh!


We would like to say Thank you to NBC and Alli sports for bringing the Mountain Dew Tour to our Valley. It is really nice to have such an event bring attention to Mount Snow. Although we are booked for rooms this weekend, we are still open for dinner and have space available, so if you here for the action and want a nice dinner, give us a call!
