Skagit River Ranch is owned by George and Eiko Vojkovich, who take pride in growing the best organic grass-fed beef, pasture chickens and pork. While the farm supplies meats to some of Seattle’s best restaurants, it is perhaps best known for eggs, which often sell out at the farmers markets faster than customers can find the end of the line.

We are debuting the Monday night “Homage to Local Producers” dinners on Nov. 19. We’re excited to offer dishes that aren’t normally available. We hope you will join us on Nov. 19 and subsequent Mondays for these special menus. The featured farm this week is Oxbow, which is located near the Snoqualmie River. This imbues the soil with glacial till from the Cascades, which results in robustly flavored produce.
