At Everling Coastal Farm, located in VA Beach, they process and bottle extra virgin handcrafted Artisan Oils. They started with Pecan Oil and Sunflower Oil with more to come! They use a cold pressed method to produce a unrefined, nutrient-filled oil for culinary use. Their Pecan Oil has a smoke point of 470 degrees so it’s perfect for sautéing, roasting meats, seafood and vegetables. Their Sunflower Oil tastes like biting into a sunflower seed and is great for vinaigrettes, dipping with bread or drizzled over hot popcorn. Their oils are non-GMO, too. They also bring us artisan vinegars from Modena, Italy and their own pecan butter! The commercial kitchen they use for all their processing is VDACS approved. They use seeds and nuts grown in the USA to produce the highest quality oils available. Attends East Beach full time. Attends Winter Market and Harvest Market select dates.
