Black River Food Co. is a renowned gastro catering and event service company in the Lake Country region that promotes local and seasonal ingredients.
We offer catering for private corporate luxury retreats, outdoor BBQs, team-building events, culinary classes, weddings, and other celebratory events.
All creations are handcrafted in our own kitchen with pure, fresh, natural ingredients. We source our product at local farmer’s markets, apiaries, and specialty farms, supporting local sustainability. In the kitchen, we prepare in small batch sizes so everything is done by hand.
Whether you’re making a roux or reduction, you cannot replace a Chef with a machine!
