| There exists today a growing need for commitment to sustainable food practices. This broad and complex area relates to a responsibility we all share in the stewardship of our soil, water and air.
We believe strongly in supporting farming techniques that are sustainable, organic and regenerative. It is imperative that we re-establish the balance between nature and man in all of our food- producing endeavors. Current large farming methods rely on a system of agriculture dependent upon the use of herbicides, pesticides, petrochemicals and intensive irrigation. This system is non-renewable, non-sustainable and generally non-local.
The cuisine here at Higgins is truly rooted in our Northwest soil. We hope that our commitment to these principles and to the use of ingredients that are local, seasonal, organic and sustainable will nourish your mind and body. Please help by supporting our local organic farmers when you shop for your kitchen. Their fruits and vegetables represent so much more than just good flavor -- they are the seeds of our future.
