Earnest Ice Cream

We love ice cream and we take it, well, earnestly. To us, this means crafting ice cream in small batches using local, seasonal ingredients. It means packaging our pints in reusable glass jars and pedaling an ice cream tricycle. It means curiosity and passion, and we think this is a recipe for the best ice cream in Vancouver.

Oso Negro Coffee

Oso Negro began in 1993, when old friends Jon Meyer and Jim May—who'd worked together in the forest sector—decided the time was right for a change in careers. They started doing research, re-mortgaged their homes, and set up shop in a 200 square foot room overlooking Nelson's small, shady IODE park. Oso Negro, black bear in Spanish, seemed the right name for a couple of reasons. For one, it's an apt local symbol. For another, Jon is known for his dedication to unadulterated black coffee. Finally, they hoped the foreign words would serve as a reminder of how far coffee travels to reach us, and to consider and honour the people who grow it.

Artisan Bake Shoppe

We also feature fresh baking from our friends at The Artisan Bake Shoppe. They are also a North Vancouver based company with strong ties to our community. They are crafters of pure and natural breads. Their goal is to back to the roots of baking by keeping the bread as pure as possible. No preservatives, no additives, no dough improvers, no artificial flavours, and no colourings. They use locally grown, organic flours. Providing people with healthy and organic food is their contribution for a sustainable lifestyle and for a better world. Thanks Ursula and Markus, for caring so much about your bread and your community.

Natural Pastures Cheese Co.

Our story is about green meadows, happy cows, fresh thinking and age-old cheese making traditions taking place in the lush landscape of Vancouver Island’s Comox Valley.

Natural Pastures specialty artisan cheeses are known for having a unique, delicious taste or “terroir”, developed from the fresh, pure milk which the pristine soils, waters and pastures produce here in the Comox Valley” comments Edgar Smith, “We only use fresh milk produced on our selected Heritage Dairy Farms, which practice sustainable farming and animal stewardship. The designation means that the farmers must be good stewards of the land. The animals are stress free and live in healthy environments. Because the cows eat the local grass and herbs, generously watered by Pacific Ocean-soaked rain, the milk used to make the cheese has its own “terroir” or distinct flavour. The term is familiar to wine-makers, where different regions have their distinct terroirs.

Rain City Soups

Soup has always been a passion of mine. Over the years, friends kept telling me that my soup creations were great and that I should start selling them.

So here I am, making soup by hand in small batches.

I have carefully researched the producers of the ingredients I use and have selected only freshest and most natural ingredients for use. In my soups you will find absolutely no chemicals, additives or preservatives of any kind.

Give our small-batch, hand-made Artisan soups a try and feel the love I put into creating every single amazing, nourishing bowl!

Avalon Organic Dairy

Jeremiah Crowley came out from Western Bay, Newfoundland in 1898 for the gold rush.
Arriving in Vancouver he found the gold rush over. He was so impressed with Vancouver that he returned to Newfoundland and brought his family with him to settle here in 1906. After purchasing a house on Wales Street, which came with 6 cows, he began to build up Avalon Dairy.
In the same year, he purchased acreage at 5805 Wales, which is the present location of the Dairy. The farm house was built in 1908 and is still in use.

Avalon is a family business. It is the oldest continuously operating Dairy in B.C.

Moja Coffee

Moja Coffee is roasted right here in North Vancouver! Doug and Andrew source the very finest beans from all over and then roast them traditionally in their German Probat roaster in small batches.
