This Martha's Vineyard artisan serving plank is a gorgeous addition to any celebration, on Island or off! This paddle shaped serving plank is made with the stunning wood of the acacia tree.

Adding to its rustic look, the handle includes a hemp hanging loop so you can display this versatile piece of kitchen art for all to see.

4. Shop: Chilmark Coffee
The Chilmark Coffee Company is part of a small island community; a collaboration between farmers and fisherman, summer intellectuals and world economic leaders, photographers and painters, poets and stone masons, tradesmen and master craftsmen, elderly and young - all working closely to continue the values and slow pace established generations ago on this glacial moraine in the Atlantic Ocean. People here make things slowly and with pride.  They understand and live as part of this unique environment.

5. Shop: MV Mycological Dried Wild Harvest Shiitake 
'Tis the season for soup and stock making! This is what they call a “One Stop Stock” (and better than bullion). Add one bag to a salted gallon of water, boil and stir, et voila, a rich broth full of healthful and culinary benefit from the highest grade of Shiitake
Want to re-hydrate and cook? Easy. Slowly add water, (or any liquid,) to a hot pan with your dried mushrooms to reconstitute. This works great with the other veggies in a stir fry! Air dried hot using the Bar Tartine method to ensure total desiccation and light carmelization. Locally grown in Chilmark these mushrooms are higher in fiber, D and B vitamins and Lentinan, a compound shown to bolster the immune system’s natural defenses.
