The ingredients we use are almost entirely local, organic whenever possible. The dairy comes from all-natural, hormone-free cows in Washington and Oregon. The stout is brewed at the Elysian, and the coffee is roasted at Stumptown. All of the fruit comes from the Northwest. The baked goods are from Seattle bakers that we think supply good-quality, local, natural products. If you want to know more about Domovoi, ask Curt upstairs in Snowmonkey’s (he owns it). Mighty-O doughnuts will be coming soon.
Look around: everything has a story. The furniture is all salvaged and handmade out of materials gleaned from the greater Seattle area and put together with the help of friends. Ken and Pete flew across the country from the East Coast for a week in May and helped me build the tables and do a hundred other tasks when things were really getting crazy. My friends here in Capitol Hill have helped me paint, haul furniture, taste-test early versions of ice cream flavors, and have supported me from the beginning. I also discovered a ton of amazing people in this neighborhood who have welcomed me and the shop with open arms. I don’t own a car, so I relied on borrowing friends' vans, carpooling, and the bus. My best friend Mark and my brother Ben came to Seattle for the summer to work in the shop – say hi to them. I couldn’t have done this without everyone’s help.
Thank you for supporting Bluebird. If you have any ideas about things you’d like to see in here, or if you want to hear more about any of the ingredients, artwork, or furniture you see, feel free to talk to any of us. I’m looking forward to many more good things to come in this place.
