About
LOCALLLY GROWN PEOPLE, LOCALLY GROWN FOOD
Ground Up was started by born-and-raised Gabriolan's Becky and Jen along with their partners Alex and Bram. Between us we have over 60 years of highly varied food service experience.
Our team works very hard to source as much as we can from Gabriola Island producers. This includes meat, eggs, veggies and locally roasted coffee. Using fresh, local ingredients is very important to us not just for the quality of ingredients but also for strengthening our local economy and building a strong island community.
We love the strong working relationship that we have built with local farms and producers and nothing makes us prouder than seeing happy people eating great local food.
