About Bird Valley Foodstuff

Mission

Our Mission is to simplify cooking, inspire and empower everyone by offering unique condiments and recipes to create delicious healthy food at home.

Philosophy

The foundation of Bird Valley Foodstuff is rooted in a love of good food, family, community and history.

At Bird Valley Foodstuff, food is our passion and our food inspiration comes in many forms: the culinary diversity of California, the rustic charm of country cooking and the regional food traditions of America.

We love how cooking and food can bring people together, whether it’s sitting down at supper time, a Sunday cookout, holiday festivities, weekend barbecues, a game day tailgate or a summertime fish fry.  The act of sharing and eating food in the company of friends and family is a cherished tradition which values we embrace and strive to encourage with our products.

With Bird Valley Foodstuff we are focused on rediscovering the flavors, character and soul of regional home cooking.  Produced in small batches, we are taking a back to basics approach aiming to improve the food people enjoy to eat without sacrificing flavor.  We are all about eating better not less, and we have made a conscious effort to procure sustainable ingredients from trusted sources so when you are using our real ingredients you are doing so with confidence.

Bird Valley Foodstuff spice blends and rubs capture the unique flavors of American tastes.  Our spice blends contain no artificial preservatives, flavorings, coloring and as little to no anti-caking agents when possible which make it better for you and for our communities, and frankly, they just taste better.

Transparency

At Bird Valley Foodstuff, we believe transparency is a good thing.  As the seasons change and availability of ingredients shifts, the country of origin for those ingredients may change as well.  Upon request, we will share with you the current country of origin, or if you have purchased our products, the country of origin for ingedients related to your particular item.  You should know who prepares your food, what’s in it and where it comes from.  We strive to present you with the information required to make informed buying decisions, knowing the products that you get from us and are feeding your family are of the utmost quality.  We are mindful of the overall impact with regards to quality of health, environmental and societal impact of our business and with that our products are all natural and contain no artificial colors, flavors, fillers, chemical additives, anti-caking agents or preservatives.  What you see on the label is all that we put in our products.  We provide this information with a dedication to the highest quality of customer satisfaction.

Support Local Food

Supporting local and regional food systems helps support sustainably run farms and can help protect our health and the health of our communities as well as help stimulate local economies.  Local food systems are generally made up of small, independently owned farms and companies.  Owners genuinely care about the quality of the food they’re producing, the land they tend, the people they employ and the communities they’re a part of.  Food grown locally, processed locally and distributed locally not only usually tastes better because it is fresh but is generally more nutrient rich and better for you.  Eating local food is an opportunity to encounter the diversity of flavors unique to a region and to a season.  Supporting local food is a chance to remember that real people grow and make our food and to recognize the value of their work.  Eating locally doesn’t have to stop when you leave your kitchen, many chefs source at least some, if not all, of their ingredients locally.  The best chefs plan their menus around what’s currently being harvested as you should too.  Make eating locally easier during less bountiful months by stocking up on products you love while they’re in season and preserve them by pickling, canning, drying or freezing.  Although we love to eat straight from the garden, we can’t help but to compliment the flavors of the local food with our Bird Valley Foodstuff products.
