WELCOME TO OUR POP UP SHOP 9AM-12PM SELECT SUNDAYS WE ARE LOCATED IN THE LITTLE HOUSE AT 764 S. COAST HWY 101 The majority of our ingredients are sourced from vendors at the Leucadia Farmer's Market, including produce, eggs, bread, raw bee pollen, raw honey and estate cheeses. 90% of the product is local and 99% is organic. People should know where their food comes from. We hope to start a discussion in the community about the importance of organics, local food sheds and quality products.

Question of the Day: What is a Foodshed?
This is a portion of the full definition: A foodshed is everything between where a food is produced and where a food is consumed -- the land it grows on, the routes it travels, the markets it goes through, the tables it ends up gracing. First used in the early 20th century to describe the global flow of food, "foodshed" has recently been resurrected to discuss local food systems and efforts to create more sustainable ways of producing and consuming food.
