Under the direction of a master gardener, our four-season greenhouse provides Summer Winter with much of its specialty produce. These ingredients are incorporated into our daily menu to ensure guests the best possible food.
"(Arrows) helped pioneer the idea of growing your own food and paying attention to what's seasonal in a place that is unforgiving in its climate" Bon Appetit, September 2003
Summer Winter wishes to continue this commitment to fresh organic produce and herbs to create a menu of seasonal, modern American cuisine that will keep you coming back for more.
What's going on in the Greenhouse - Ryan Fahey, Gardener
Come outside for a walk through the greenhouse and you will see that spring has sprung here at Summer Winter! Edible flowers are blossoming on our rosemary and chervil. Crops are growing more vigorously with each passing day. Turnips that were planted last fall have survived the winter in the shelter of a cold frame box, and their roots are filling out nicely. It will not be long before the dynamic view from the dining room will show off new plantings by day, hardening off in reponse to the outside temperatures. The lids to the cold frames will be lifted higher, and higher, and finally removed from the boxes to show off full grown heads of lettuce. Until then, while I'm busy planting flowers, lettuce, and fruiting vegetables, you can be sure to enjoy new varieties of micro greens, and more fresh salad greens from just a few steps out of the dining room door.
