Homegrown, sustainable ingredients taste just right

Here at Stahlbush we’re focused on healthy, high quality products that are sustainably grown. And while you can find our fruits and veggies in natural food stores under the Farmer’s Market and Stahlbush brand names, we also serve customers who want fruit and vegetable ingredients for their own food and beverage products.

One of our customers and neighbors to the north is the very delicious and decadent Ruby Jewel Treats of Portland, Oregon.

Ruby Jewel’s handmade ice cream sandwiches are made with local ingredients, and our organic pumpkin was featured in this fall’s seasonal flavor: Ginger Cookie with Pumpkin Ice Cream.

I visited Ruby Jewel at the beginning of what promised to be a good season for this holiday treat. And yes, it tastes as good as it looks.

This is just one of many ways our organic pumpkin is used as an ingredient — you can find our pumpkin in pies, soups, and more. Stahlbush and the Willamette Valley as a whole benefit from wonderful soil and growing conditions that suit a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, and by producing quality food for others we act as a hub of a better food system. For Stahlbush, that has always been a compelling reason to value and protect our resources by farming sustainably.
