We are proud to be St. Lawrence County’s premier “Farm to Table” restaurant. Since opening our doors over 10 years ago, our focus has been on creating a community bistro with a menu that showcases the finest local ingredients available to prepare each dish. We are committed to using local sustainably grown produce and meats whenever possible. Since 2006 the 1844 House has purchased more than $175,450.00 in food from our local farms.
It is very exciting to see that we have inspired so many of the newer restaurants in the surrounding communities to embrace our philosophy of supporting our local farms. Buying fresh local food is not a culinary trend. It is an age old tradition of professional chefs and their commitment to provide the most nutritious and wholesome foods available prepared in creative ways. It is also part of our commitment to encourage our guests to eat seasonally and support the local economy.
We also produce a nice variety of food right here at 1844 House. We grow grapes (seedless table, wild and wine varietals), figs, currants, hops, rosemary, chives, mint (3 types), sage, oregano,a variety of edible flowers, rhubarb, raspberries, apples, bay laurel, & garlic. We have 6 raised beds installed in the back yard for increased production.
In addition to our twice a week trips to the local farmers market (during the spring, summer, and fall season) we are proud partners with the local suppliers and organizations listed below!
