There’s something special about harvesting food from your own backyard. On our property, an old chestnut tree has been quietly providing its autumn harvest for years, and Chef Becky gathers its chestnuts just as she picks tomatoes and fresh herbs from her container gardens in summer.
In the kitchen, chestnuts bring a wonderful earthy sweetness to the table. Roast them until tender, fold them into a savory stuffing, add them to seasonal soups, or pair them with roasted root vegetables for a comforting fall dish.
At BEX, living in season is more than a culinary philosophy. It’s a way of life. It means appreciating what grows around us, making the most of what nature provides, and finding harmony in the simple rhythms of the seasons.
Sometimes, the most meaningful ingredients are growing right outside our door. 🍂
