Stocking Stuffers




Between the amazing array of local products next door at Red Hen and our sizably perfect packages here at the shop... we've got your socks stuffed! I've seen folks leaving with armloads of tiny goodies feeling stoked about their stockings.

Come by and grab a bar or two, some trail mix snack packs or chunks before that special morning...



Holiday Decor


I arrived at work one blustery winter morning to be warmed by the cheer of our impressive new window display!

Steph was siezed by inspiration and went nuts stringing up little bags of granola and magic chunks and delicious chocolates with bulbs and ribbon and tinsel and a brilliance like none other!

It has brought alot of spirit to Camp Meade, I'm sure we all agree...

Community Work Party




Steph had the magnificent idea of putting out a call for 6 volunteers to work for chocolate for community building and support.

The party proved to be a magnificent idea, with a day full of productivity and delight. We were joined by the tireless Banjo Bob and Allen the Chocolatier, 8 year old Anna (who ran the show!) and her adoring mother Lynn, Justine and Amy who ditched their scrapbooking group to be with us and Ruth and Hannah, the elusive artists from up the road.

The highlight of the afternoon was sitting around Steph's swiss woodstove and enjoying one another over a lunch of local brussel sprouts, leeks and grass-fed beef franks.

Let us know if you want to do it again sometime!

Honeymooners Spead the Nutty Love

"We had the great fortune of trying your granola this past summer while we were on vacation in Canada. We were in Nova Scotia on the Cabot trail and met a young honeymooning couple, well I sort of guessed they were on a honeymoon, anyhow I sent my husband out to the tent site which they were on with some champagne and later they stopped off to give us some of your granola.
How fortunate for us, I normally do not eat granola as it is always too sticky or sweet, well I have to say that yours is the best!
We feasted on this while we finished our tour of the Cabot trail and even had a bit left when we returned home to New Hampshire.
I will be ordering some later today for gifts and of course for my own personal consumption. Keep up the great work, you look busy busy!!"

Abby's Smart Momma

Abby







A wonderful family from Long Island visited our shop when sightseeing during foliage season. We made quick friends and have been corresponding with Abby via email.

After the fact, to our absolute delight we were happy to enable Abby's mother, Jen, to take a break from the cookie racket this season, by hooking her up with 20 classic bags of our Vermont Granola and a Nutty Trinity for her loved ones!!!

The holiday ritual of baking love into your cookies and sharing them with holiday cheer is an amazing process. But if you don't got it in ya this year... follows Jen's lead... think of our small team of bakers as your elves!
