Sharing meals with family and friends is one of the true joys of the holiday season. We all have our favorite dishes, from Grandma’s secret recipe for the perfect turkey stuffing to Uncle David’s apple pie. This year, our friends at two of Concord’s most beloved places, Debra’s Natural Gourmet and Verrill Farm, are sharing recipes that are sure to become perennial favorites.
For more than 30 years, Debra Stark tirelessly led her community towards a healthier lifestyle by making organic and healthy foods available at her “Natural Gourmet” store – first opened in 1989 at a time when most people thought of health food as “tofu and twigs.” Debra’s charm, persistence, and genuine belief in what she was trying to achieve eventually overcame the naysayers, and the shop soon became a thriving cornerstone for the West Concord community and beyond.
