A full breakfast is served each morning. Some of the ingredients come from our permaculture vegetable garden.

Vegetarians (lacto-ovo, ie. milk eggs) always served. Vegan or Gluten Free Breakfast available with advance notice.

Main dishes vary by season, but they are all sumptuous. Here are a few of our favorites:

Peach and cream cheese stuffed French Toast with homemade blackberry or blueberry syrup in season. The blackberries are picked on the property.

Breakfast stratas (blueberry French toast is a favorite)

Broccoli or mushroom quiche

Fried vegetables

Corn Fritters made from fresh corn on the cob corn (in season).

Fresh seasonal fruit

Vegan lemon waffles with blueberry sauce

Traditional eggs

Morningstar Farms Vegetarian Sausage

Fried potatoes or fried apples

Greens with raspberry chipolte sauce (favorite among vegans)

Fresh baked regular and vegan muffins.

We use only organic milk and eggs are pasture raised from a farm not too far from the inn (yes we visit

the chickens during our egg pick ups).

We also purchase organic free trade coffee.

Herbs from our garden add zest to the breakfast. A permaculture vegetable garden was added in the Fall 2009 using sheet mulching to create soil and swales for rainwater conservation. The garden produces tomatoes, squash, peppers, broccoli, cantaloupes, sweet potatoes, yukon gold potatoes, corn, beans and more. Blueberries, peach trees, autumn olives, cherries, plums and concord grapes were also planted. The garden will be expanded over time to produce more food for the inn and innkeepers. We are also mindful to purchase food that is not in containers/packaging that cannot be recycled.

Breakfast Conversations

Breakfast is served around our dining room table. Guests enjoy visiting with other guests, and stimulating and entertaining discussions often occur on a variety of topics. Often current events, topics about the environment, movies, music or the latest on The Daily Show, Colbert Report or The Family Guy are covered. Discussions about favorite hikes, places to eat and things to do are also frequently discussed. In nice weather limited breakfast seating is available on the patio.
