Sourcing Locally

In an effort to acquire more of its food from local vendors who raise their animals in a humane, grass-fed and chemical-free environment and who grow their produce organically, Evins Mill is pleased to partner with many Tennessee-based food purveyors - as well as a few in bordering states. In 2020, Evins Mill bought 20% of its food & beverage products from Tennessee sources and is dedicated to increase that share.

The philosophy and techniques of many of the resort's purveyors result in cuisine that is better for...

• the health of our guests

• the environment

• the local economy

• local farmers & their animals

• and of course the taste

Evins Mill chronicles the story of its locally-sourced cuisine on its blog Thoughtful Provenance, where Chef Evans posts profiles of our Tennessee-based food purveyors, or offers a progress report from his own farm, from which the resort purchases much of its produce spring through fall.
