While there are a handful of mail-order food companies that are known across the country (outfits such as Harry & David, Hickory Farms, The Popcorn Factory) there is a much larger group of excellent—often family-run—food makers that are famous on a more local level.
Gourmavens celebrates these local food companies. Many of them have been preparing delicious specialty foods for generations. In fact, a number have been in business for more than 100 years.
Recently, thanks to the low cost of setting up a web site, many of these companies are able to send their products to just about any food lover with a postal address. Whether you’re fond of candy, chocolate, fruit, honey, peanuts, pickles or pretzels, you’ll find gourmet varieties here. And if you have a favorite company we’ve overlooked, please let us know.
