Product feature: Bayfield Provisions

At VG Meats, we’re always on the lookout for incredible local products to put on our shelves. This has led us to a lot of amazing brands, from Jensen Cheese and Summit Station Dairy to Defina Pizza and the awesome selection of local condiments you see in store. As we continue to expand our product offering, we’ll be introducing you to more local food producers—the best of the best, in our humble opinion. That’s what our customers are looking for (and what they deserve)!

These carefully selected local products complement our amazing Ontario beef, poultry, lamb and pork, making every meal a memorable experience. Today, we’d like to talk to you about Bayfield Provisions—makers of the best granola you’ve ever tasted, and a fantastic local business partner. Here’s everything you need to know.

The Bayfield Provisions story

Bayfield Provisions is a boutique granola bakery that started in the village of Bayfield, Ontario and now has a location in Toronto. This awesome supplier crafts high quality, deeply flavoured, small-batch granolas that are made fresh weekly using local gluten-free oats, local maple syrup, extra virgin olive oil and lots of good-for-you nuts, seeds and fruits. Each batch is mixed, tasted, slow-roasted and packaged by hand. You can taste the artisan quality in every single bite—this is granola for an adult palate (though kids love it, too). Try it with a thick Greek or Icelandic yogurt, on top of a smoothie bowl, with fresh fruit, or as a snack on its own. There are several varieties to choose from and trust us, they’re all delicious.

Bayfield’s high quality products

Bayfield Provisions knows what to do with flavours and textures, so every single one of their products is exceptional. Here’s an overview of what’s available:

• 
  Bayfield Granola No. 1 offers the classic warm flavours of cardamom and cinnamon, toasted whole almonds, dried cranberries and apricots.
• Bayfield Granola No. 2 offers bold star anise and cinnamon flavours, dried blueberries, apricots and almonds.
• Bayfield Granola No. 3 offers flavours of dark Dutch cocoa, real espresso, nutty cacao nibs, dried sour cherries and chunks of toasty hazelnut.
