In our new issue, we celebrate the power of local foods with the Chase Family at their restaurant, Chase’s Daily, in Belfast. This family-run establishment has their roots firmly planted in their farm in Freedom, Maine. Produce and flowers are harvested there fresh daily and find their way to grateful patrons’ plates at Chase’s Daily. Seasonal foods determine daily menu offerings, and the bakery at Chase’s has some of the most amazing homemade goods around. Twice James Beard nominated, Chase’s Daily is a true farm to fork establishment serving up delicious and fresh vegetarian fare.

In this issue of Maine Food & Lifestyle, learn the story behind the business and the players involved in making Chase’s Daily such a success. We also share two popular Chase recipes with you: an heirloom tomato salad and braised fennel pizza.

Check out this delicious story and photos! (Creative Director Jim Bazin’s Chase produce graces the cover of the new issue.) We urge everyone to “Get Your Chase’s, Daily!”
