Heirloom Provisions, a Hillsborough-based sustainable food provider, curates its own collection of culinary products, for sale to all food lovers nationwide. It partners with local producers and artisans to deliver locally sourced organic and scratch-made goods to customers’ homes.
“It’s basically a farmer’s market that delivers directly to your door,” said Jamie DeMent, who co-owns Heirloom Provisions with her husband, Richard Holcomb. “Who doesn’t love to get a box of food on their door every week?”
The pair also owns and operates several other businesses, including Bella Bean Organics, Coon Rock Farm and Piedmont Restaurant. Heirloom Provisions, founded a little over a year ago, is an expansion of Bella Bean Organics, extending the delivery services nationwide rather than locally.
Bella Bean and Heirloom both grew out of the couple’s lifestyle, DeMent said.
“We figured there’s a lot of busy people out there who want the same, high quality, local, organic and artisan food that don’t have time to do all that,” she said.
Heirloom partners with several Chapel Hill and Raleigh-based businesses, including The Bagel Bar, Videri Chocolate Factory and Chapel Hill Creamery, among others statewide.
The Bagel Bar has been supplying Heirloom and Bella Bean with in-house, scratch-made bagels and cream cheese for almost two years.
“It’s been positive for us — it’s allowed us to expand our reach to folks in areas that might not get over to Chapel Hill, but still want a great bagel,” said Karra Pate, who co-owns The Bagel Bar with business partner Jon Collins.
