Our Suppliers
We buy produce that is organic and locally produced whenever possible. We like to support local businesses and are constantly trying new products and ideas to ensure that our guests have the very best experience. Below are details of some of the suppliers we use most frequently. We shop daily to ensure freshness and buy only in small amounts.
Coffee
Our regular coffee is made from "The Ultimate Buzz" whole
coffee beans that come from
Hogan Brothers
, a micro-roast
coffee business based in Framingham, MA. We also have their
decaffeinated coffee beans for anyone wanting a slower start
to their day. The company was founded in 1996, by two brothers
Jay and Jim Hogan, who share a passion for excellent coffees, and
who developed recipes, blends and roasting procedures, which they
believed significantly improved on many existing coffee offerings. |

Bacon
Our bacon comes from
Vermont Smoke and Cure
in South Barre, Vermont.
Vermont Maple Syrup, a modest amount of salt, then a slow smoke over ground corn
cobs and maple wood shavings make for the best bacon we have ever
tasted – and our guests agree. |

Eggs
The Country Hen
based in Hubbardston, MA keep their chickens in
spacious sun lit barns and feed them certified organic feed high in
Omega-3s. The resulting eggs are delicious. |

Sausages
Our pork chipolata sausages come from
Idylwilde Farm
in Acton, MA. |
|
Fruit and VegetablesWe get all of our fruit and vegetables from Idylwilde Farm and other farms located in and around Stow. |

Bread
Our bread comes from
Jessica's Brick Oven
in Woburn, MA. We most often serve the French Pullman white loaf and the Pullman Whole
Grain with Flax. |
|
Chocolates
The chocolates in the rooms come from
Colonial Candies
of Bolton,
MA. Run by Grace Hebert of the Hebert Candies family. Their ice
cream parlor and candy shop is well worth a visit – located at the
Rte 495 & Rte 117 interchange. |
|
Beer
In addition to their wines, the
Nashoba Valley Winery
also produces an excellent
range of crafted beers, examples of which are usually found in the
Sitting Room refrigerator. We also sometimes stock their wines.
The winery is an excellent place to visit with winery tours, fruit
picking, an excellent restaurant and a beautiful setting - just a
short drive from Amerscot House. |
