We would like to thank the people who make our food possible, namely the farmers.

Local farmers include:

The Green Grocer – Celeste and George Albers raise the chickens who lay the delicious eggs that you enjoy at brunch and in all our baked goods.  And now we sell their incredibly rich raw milk!

Kinnerty Farms -- The Kinnertys supply us with honey that makes our cornbread extra special.

Keegan-Filion Farm -- Annie and Mark Filion supply us with whole hogs and farm eggs. We use their whole hogs to make our sausage -- Belle's Country Links -- which you can buy in our online store.

Kurios Farms -- Wes and Juanita Melling grow hydroponic lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers that make our salads incredible, especially when the winter freezes all the outside crops!

Other Local Deliciousness:

Our all natural ice cream is made locally by Wholly Cow – www.whollycowicecream.com -- they make peppermint year round per our special request!

Our awesome draft beer comes from Dave and Jaime at Coast Brewery, located just up the road in North Charleston.  Visit them for a tour!  www.coastbrewing.com

Rio Bertolini's Pasta provides the GO with fresh cavatelli pasta! www.riobertolinispasta.com

Our brioche for the grilled pimento cheese comes from the acclaimed Normandy Farms Bakery -- located right here in West Ashley!

We also want to thank our local Earth Fare organic food supermarket for fulfilling our egg needs when the local farmers run dry.  Their all natural eggs come from NC.
