your summer is just heating up!

SHOP NOW

Welcome Back!

It has been a long two years. The pandemic has changed the lives of everyone. Greg and I made a concerted effort to stay in business in spite of the hardship, and here we are, in large part to you who have stepped up by ordering online or curbside. Although the pandemic isn't over it's hopefully getting to the point where life can go on in whatever new fashion it decides.

The summer growing season has started off well, the corn is getting high and the river is running warm. As the dog days of summer come on, we hope you're enjoying some outdoor time with friends and loved ones, because we have a few new dinner sauces and salsas available for your next get together that will blow you and your guests away!

News!

Fresh Local Peppers

We've started receiving the first batch of this year's pepper crop and you'll be able to order your pack of Cello Peppers shortly! The local tomato supply has become really exciting. We've been working with Serres de Chlorophylle in Les Cèdres now for a couple of years, and this year made an agreement with another hothouse grower in Embrun, called Suntech Growers. Check out the variety of tomato products we've labeled for both Serres de Chlorophylle and Chez Nous foods! You'll find them in ecolocal conscious grocery stores in Southeastern Ontario and Southwestern Quebec! Ask your grocer for them!

Fresh Local Tomatoes

We were unsure how long the pandemic situation might last, so, we hired several consultants to examine our business. In seeking out both inefficiencies we could eliminate and uncapitalized opportunities, we discovered Chez Nous. 

We've made agreements with some major tomato growers in order to ensure tomato supply. Stay tuned to see our Chez Nous brand Salsas in a store near you!

If you've been following Twitter or our Facebook page, you'll know we've created this distribution company to get our local products that aren't so peppery to market and so, Chez Nous Foods, an offshoot brand was launched! We hope you'll ask for the brand in ecolocal grocery stores near you!

Fresh New Markets

As we began sampling Chez Nous Products in stores (Que de Bonne Choses, in Hudson, Thursday's) we had the suprise of meeting the distributor for a locally made tortilla chip brand, Nachos Montréal; Well, he saw our brand and we saw their brand and we started talking. So, as you can see by this Media Release, we're going to be partnering with a local food distribution company named AR Importation. They specialize in distributing local and imported gourmet foods and deli meats of the highest quality. They search the world for the best products and they found our salsas. They have 25 years of experience in the grocery field and their choice of fine foods to distribute sets them apart from other food distributors. We are excited to be starting with them! Feel welcome to check out their other brands. We really like the chips! They are made with maize as tortillas should be.
