Whatcom County businesses have been recognized for their food products by The Good Food awards , a national competition created by the Good Food Foundation. Judging is based on blind tastings and a food’s ability to meet both environmental and social responsibility standards, according to the organization’s website.
The awards have 18 categories including coffee, beer, cheese, chocolate, spirits, fish, confections, honey, oils, preserves and snacks. Only three craft businesses from each region of the country receive an award in each category.
The 2024 Good Food Awards rewarded 215 craft businesses out of more than 1,700 entries from across the United States, including four from Whatcom County:
Bellingham Pasta Co.
Bellingham Pasta Co. , a pasta maker based in Bellingham, was recognized for its pappardelle pasta, which is similar to a wide fettuccine. Bellingham Pasta Co. produces fresh pasta with local ingredients and can be found in Haggen stores, Bellingham’s Community Food Co-op and Whole Foods Market .
Marie’s Bees , a woman-owned honey business based in Bellingham, was recognized for its savory honey. The creamed savory honey is made with an all-natural puree of honey, rosemary, sea salt and thyme. The business also makes honeycomb candy, creamed honeys, woodsman’s wax and flavored honeys.
Pangea Ferments , a locally grown fermented food business in Bellingham, was awarded three Good Food awards for its kimchi, curtido sauerkraut and garlic dill sauerkraut. Pangea Ferments also ferments pickles, brussel sprouts, beets and jalapenos, as well as sauces.
