It All Began...

Building on his father's visionary transformation of a chicken farm into a popular arts and crafts studio in the 1970s, Dave Wallace founded Bittersweet Herb Farm whose all-natural gourmet Finishing Sauces, Oils, Balsamic Vinegars, Cooking Seasonings and Specialty Jams are now available in thousands of gourmet food and graft stores from Florida to Alaska as well as overseas.

The company's roots lie in a fledgling herb business Dave started in the late 1970s on the family farm in Branford, Connecticut and are reflected in Bittersweet's classic flavor Combinations today. Bittersweet Herb Farm took its true form as we know it in 1983, as it became a high-end gourmet food company.

In 1990, Bittersweet Herb Farm moved to Shelburne, Massachusetts, in the beautiful hills of the northern Berkshires along the Deerfield River. Here we strive to have our products combine the wholesomeness of small town America--with natural ingredients and artisan practices.

We believe our products reflect our love of cooking and our passion for enjoying great food with family and friends We hope you'll come up with your own great uses for our products, and if you do, please let us know!

We invite you to join us as we continue to explore our passion for food, fresh ingredients and outstanding cooking.

Enjoy,

Bittersweet Herb Farm
