Eating Fresh on Bainbridge (WU-610)

Joe Pulicicchio, Director of Promotions & Produce and Floral for Town & Country Markets returns to our podcast desk today after a two-year pandemic hiatus. This is the inaugural edition of our new monthly podcast that is called ‘Eating Fresh on Bainbridge’ and will explore the ever-changing array of quality fresh fruits and vegetables that make their way to the produce shelves through the seasons.

We’ll also be exploring the various challenges of weather and other conditions that can directly affect availability and quality of all produce on a week-to-week, month-to-month basis.

In this program Joe discusses a wide array of fruits and vegetables including grapes, mangos, red berries and asparagus. He explains the process of taking the seed out of a mango and how important the idea of texture is when eating produce.

Land Acknowledgment

“Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished.” – Chief Seattle 1854

We would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suq̀ʷabš “People of Clear Salt Water” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suq̀ʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suq̀ʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors.
