The Farmhouse Kitchen, in West Reading, is serving up a new menu in their outdoor seating area and for carry-out orders. The menu is scratch-made, farm-fresh, seasonally-sourced and creatively-executed from non-genetically modified (non-GMO), organic ingredients that are consciously sourced and whole until prepared. Fresh vegetables and fruits are the primary plate occupants, complemented by a mainstay of offerings that are gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian and local, pasture-raised meat and eggs.

“We evaluated our ingredients and removed 90 percent of the oil used in our recipes,” explains owner Martie Samuel, “preferring to provide healthy fats through organic nuts, seeds, avocados, etc. Our kitchen staff also removed all refined sugar and replaced it with fresh fruit, freshly-made fruit juices, real maple syrup, dates and local honey. We make our own vegan cheese, which is showcased in our gluten-free Mac n’ Cheese and quesadillas. We work with people who have allergies and special dietary needs; we are here to serve and to help in your quest for health.”
