Richard Hines and Stephen McConkey in spelt field near Royal City
Before Stephen and I started selling Sound Bites products at farmers markets in June 2008, we took a tour of Eastern Washington to visit our suppliers. This year, we sponsored our second annual tour–only this time, we brought almost our whole staff in a 15-passenger van. It was an amazing day of learning from producers, walking the land, and experiencing great wine and food. To learn more about our experience, check out Eric Rivera’s recap at his famous cooking blog. We will write more about our tour in later blogs. — Rich Hines
