Paradise Farms

About Us
I moved to Boundary County 31 years ago with the ideals of living symbiotically with Mother Earth. I planted a large garden and variety of fruit trees including 100 Mahaleb Cherry root stock I grafted with Rainier, Bing, Royal Ann, Lambert and Montmorency Cherries. Over the years, after much trial, error and research, I’ve developed techniques of growing fruit organically on a larger scale than the typical home orchard with hopes of encouraging resident and commercial growers to do the same.

Ingredients
Gourmet Dried Pie Cherries (organic) Organically certifiable pie cherries, flavors, spices and sugar. Gourmet Dried Pie Cherries & juice (non-organic) Organically certifiable flavors and spices. Cane sugar. Non-organic pie cherries. Gourmet Dried Rainier cherries & juice (mostly organic) Organically grown Rainier cherries. Organically certified cane sugar. Dole pineapple juice (<10%)>

Practices (our standards for raising or making our products)
Only high quality fresh fruit and ingredients are used in the fruit products. All fresh fruit is handled carefully and individually, and is processed and dehydrated using the lowest heat possible. It is then frozen to maintain freshness and nutritional value. In addition to the organic products, frozen Washington-grown sour cherries are used for our non-organic products: sour cherry juice, non-organic gourmet cherry jelly, and the non-organic dried gourmet pie cherries. I, also, contract with local growers to help market and process their organically registered/certified fruit grown to our standards. Accurate production records insure standardization of quality and provide easy reference.

Little Henry's Chocolates

Product Types: Small batch artisan confections including sea salt caramels, assorted truffles, toffees

About Us
After working as a private chef, I felt encouraged to learn a new skill so I enrolled at the Ecole Chocolat School in Vancouver, BC to learn the art of chocolate making. After completing the course with high honors, I created Little Henry's Chocolates, a company dedicated to producing small batch artisan confections. I source my couverture chocolate from Vintage Plantations in Ecuador. Vintage Plantations is part of the Rainforest Alliance which prohibits the use of pesticides and chemicals. In addition, the cocoa is grown under the canopy of the existing rain forest, rather than tearing it down to make room for cocoa farms. My chocolate source is also against the practices of the slave labor of children, which is often commonplace in the larger chocolate manufacturers.

Ingredients
65% dark chocolate from Ecuador. When I make truffles, I use butter and heavy cream, plus other all natural ingredients. I do not use any preservatives or artificial flavorings in my confections.

Practices (our standards for raising or making our products)
When making small batch artisan confections, I rely on high quality ingredients. Each batch yields only 20-30 truffles which allows me to make them by hand without the use of large enrobing machines, etc.

Gebardi

Product Types: Gebardi Chicago Pizza Sauce | Gebardi Sugo Rosso (thick rich red gravy) | Gebardi Chicago Pizza Dough Ready Mix | Gebardi Chicago Pizza Crust Chips

About Us
More than a hundred years ago, the Gebardi family took the long journey from Licata, Sicily through Ellis Island and to Chicago, becoming immediately entrenched in the era that led to Prohibition. Handsome Vincenzo Gebardi meets Helen. Young and in love, the two marry secretly. Vincenzo, seeking justice for the murders of his father and step-father, embarks on a life of crime as Al Capone’s chief gunman.

He changes his name to Jack McGurn and becomes known in history as “Machine-Gun Jack McGurn”. In 1929, he is the prime suspect in the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, the most horrific and bloody gangland slaying in history. Jack is murdered in 1936 (almost to the day of the massacre) with a valentine pinned to his chest. Some believed that he knew too much and had become a liability to the outfit.

Helen carries on, raising her daughter. Four generations later, her family shares the rich heritage of food, passed down from “Nana” Helen...a bounty and blessing of flavor and history.

Today, Christine (Helen & Jack’s great-granddaughter) and her husband David, have married their old-world heritage and the zest of Chicago history to bring you Italian food that restores honor to the family name...Gebardi. Si mangia bené...You’ll eat well!
