WORKS CITED
Chapter One is committed to bringing you the best. We want to not only provide delicious, hormone-free, antibiotics-free, free range, sustainable, GMO-free, all-natural proteins & produce but, to do our part to help stop the disgusting practices of so many large scale commercial food sources by not buying their products. Here are just a few of the suppliers that we partner with:
Mary’s Free-Range Turkey & Chicken | www.marysturkeys.com
California raised, free range, non-GMO vegetarian diet, gluten free,
antibiotic-free, hormone-free, preservative-free turkeys that are
certified organic
Snake River Farms Kurobuta Pork | www.snakeriverfarms.com
Kurobuta or Berkshire pork has been purebred for almost 300 years.
They derived originally from the shire of Berks in England. Snake River
Farms started when they brought a small herd of Kobe cattle to the
States. They take that same care in how they raise their Berkshire:
humane, organic non-GMO diet & they never add any sodium, water
or extender to their fresh pork products.
Loch Duart Salmon | www.lochduart.com
They take a sustainable & environmentally-responsible approach
which defines a long-term role for aquaculture as an essential part of
the food supply chain of the future.
Our beef comes from many sources because of our volume, but we demand from our suppliers, only hormone-free, antibiotic-free, non- GMO, humane animals. One of our favorite meat producers is Meyer Natural Angus (www.meyernaturalangus.com), for example.
Our produce varies from 100’s of farms, but we also demand from our suppliers that all produce is: sourced within 200 miles / small, organic, non-GMO farms / sustainable practices
We source largely from farms in Orange County & we can generally provide you with the names of all of the farms we purchased our produce from that week. On a Friday night, it may be hard, but we will do our best! On some items, this is impossible, but it is always our goal and tireless focus.
