#new #womenshistorymonth #vsmiley #vermont #provisionspicks
Thankful for another year of forced (grown in the dark), hot house rhubarb landing on the east coast and into the kitchen.
📸
V developed her style of no-added-pectin, honey preserving while working in Seattle kitchens, launching V Smiley Preserves in 2013 and spending several years at city farmer’s markets before packing up the business and moving home to Vermont in 2015.
Opening a restaurant and finding a future for the VT farm where she grew up, undergirded both the decision to start V Smiley Preserves and the move back east. In her words, “In Vermont, with a yard of herbs and more currants and gooseberries than we could ever pick, I added to the flavor library further honing my style of aromatics driven honey confiture. In 2022, Minifactory, our jam manufactory and preserves-driven restaurant and bakery opened in Bristol, Vermont. Located in Addison County, less than 10 minutes from where I grew up, Minifactory brings together my experiences cooking and preserving on both the East and West coasts. Come visit!”
I really hope to take her up on that invitation some day. Until then, one jar for me, one jar for you…
