Winter Menu: The Butternut + Bacon Melt
Dec 20th, 2011 by Homegrownian
We’re excited to introduce our newest Seasonal sandwich, the Butternut + Bacon Melt.
This delicious winter seasonal is stacked with butternut squash and granny smith apples, bacon, goat cheese, arugula and maple walnut butter.
This sammy is part of our Seasonal10 initiative and 10% of sales from Butternut + Bacon Melt benefit The Greenway Trust
to help conserve farms and wild lands from Puget Sound to the Cascades. Learn more at mtsgreenway.org
We’re also excited to be offering our breakfast sandwiches all day long. Try our new Smoked Ham, Egg + Cheese made with Beecher’s Flagship and our homemade sage aioli.
And back by popular demand, now you can add a bag of Salt + Pepper Potato Chips to any order.
These chips are extra crispy, fried in peanut oil and seasoned with garlic and onion – making them a very crunchy, very tasty addition to your order.
Happy Holidays!

Gotta Talk To The Kids
Dec 12th, 2011 by Homegrownian
Stephen Colbert once eloquently wrote, “generally speaking, I’m against children… ‘But children are our future!’ Yes, but does that not also mean that we are their past? I don’t understand why we’re helping them. You don’t see union factory workers throwing a benefit for robots.”
Fortunately, we are a little more supportive of our future generation than Mr. Colbert. Last week, we met a 5th grade class from the Explorer Community School at the Fremont Power House (Fremont’s Art Council’s HQ) for a kiddo’s version of a Lunch-n-Learn focusing on sustainable food.
After they toured the Theo Chocolate factory, they walked up the street for some sammies, local bagels + homemade cream cheese.
Good food always paves the way for good conversation and the day’s topic was the sustainable food system, and specifically how our generation can grow, eat and shop to ensure the health of the farmland, animals, farmers and customers today and for the next generation.
All together, a really great lunch. Big thanks to the kids, teachers and parents from Explorer Community School for including Homegrown in the discussion. If you want to get in touch with us about giving a talk or providing lunch (or both!) to your school, please drop us a line at info@eathomegrown.com

Talking Social Entrepreneurship with SVP
Oct 6th, 2011 by Homegrownian
We had a great evening last night at the Social Venture Partners (SVP) Edutainment event hosted by Ruth True, founder of NUBE Green.
Homegrown founders Ben Friedman and Brad Gillis led a discussion on social entrepreneurism in concern with the environment and the food business with Matt Dillon, chef/owner of the Corson Building and Sitka & Spruce.
The conversations, also covering Art and Design (with Material Good and NUBE Green) and Micro-finance (with Vittana), focussed on the challenges of meeting the requirements of two bottom lines for mission driven companies faced with tough decisions and the requisite balance of serving both a cause and a customer.
For Homegrown, though somedays we’re too busy worrying about our recipes to think of our social impact, these ideas ring true on a daily basis. Joined by under-35 members of the local business community, the discussion on sustainable food focussed on the supply chain in place and how the market is affected by demand as companies like ours continue to grow.
A big thanks to SVP for including us in a great evening.
