*Published: February 14, 2026*

When we first envisioned our licensed processing kitchen in Gilbertsville, we knew it would be a hub for local food entrepreneurs. Now we're adding a new ingredient for 2026 — the Best Route Supper Club.

When we first envisioned our licensed processing kitchen in Gilbertsville, we knew it would be a hub for local food entrepreneurs and a place to wash and prep the harvest from our farm. But as we look toward 2026, we're adding a new ingredient to the mix: The Best Route Supper Club.

What is the Supper Club?

We believe that "food access" isn't just about getting groceries into a home — it's about what happens next. It's about the joy of cooking a seasonal meal and the confidence to try a vegetable you've never seen before.

Starting in the 2026 season, our kitchen will transform once a week into a test lab for seasonal eating. Each week, we'll highlight a "Hero Ingredient" currently growing on the farm or available on our mobile market.

What to Expect

The Weekly Recipe Reveal: We'll share a chef-curated recipe designed to be simple, nutritious, and affordable.

The Chef's Tote Sneak Peek: Many of these recipes will eventually become part of our Chef's Totes — our curated recipe bundles that give you everything you need for a complete meal in one bag.

Virtual Cook-Alongs: We'll be sharing tips from our kitchen on how to prep, store, and preserve the best of Pennsylvania's seasons.

Trialing the Harvest

Why are we doing this now? Because great food takes practice. This year, our team is busy in the kitchen testing everything from garlic scape pestos to heirloom tomato preserves. We are refining our processes to ensure that when the 2026 season kicks off, our community has access to high-quality, value-added products that make healthy eating the easiest choice in the room.
