Portland's Good Food Award Winners

For Bitter For Worse

For Bitter For Worse's sophisticated, complex and utterly delicious nonalcoholic cocktails are a true game changer. Founded by Shelley Elkovich and her husband Jeff Heglie barely two years ago, they've quickly risen to the top of the ranks in the rapidly-expanding nonalcoholic cocktail category.

Camellia Grove Kombucha

Born out of the idea that the roots of kombucha are in tea, Camellia Grove is made without added sugars, flavor extracts, or juices, letting the tea-forward flavor shine through. It’s a refreshing kombucha that everyone can enjoy, and never goes through a secondary fermentation process, which means it’s a non-alcoholic beverage that is always low in sugar and high in flavor.

La Porteña

First generation Argentine-American Jessica Viciconte uses fresh, local ingredients to craft small-batch chimichurris right here in Portland. Her brand La Porteña’s sauces are equally at home as dip for crudites, bread, and salad as they are with piles of smoky grilled meats.

Portland Welcomes the Good Food Foundation

Sarah Weiner’s career has always been about good food. She’s lived in Italy and worked for Alice Waters, and the nonprofit she founded in 2016 has been instrumental in raising the profiles of countless small food producers from across the country. We were thrilled when she told us she was moving to town.
