Red, white and chill
Let our summer wine list guide you through Sausalito’s salty days and cool nights in style. All eyes are on four Railsback Frères bottles: Les Rascasses rosé, Grenache Noir, and latest project Roman Ceremony sauvignon blanc and cabernet sauvignon. Round out the west coast wines with Peron’s super rare Poiré cider, Den Saké’s cool Blanc label, and easy Cassis spritzer from CC Spritz.
TwoXSea
New at Driver’s! Our frozen department now features a dedicated seafood section with fish from sustainable local luminary TwoXSea. Founder Kenny Belov, also co-owner of Fish here in Sausalito, is deeply committed to sustainable fishing practices, and has built his businesses around improving the industry. He can even tell you which boat caught the fish you’re purchasing, and he stands by fair pay for his workers. TwoXSea harvests cause no habitat destruction, no bycatch (loss of marine life through incidental catch), and is as local as possible.
Plastic-free home
Reducing landfill waste in the bathroom can be tricky. Plastic is not as recyclable as we used to think, and most skincare products come in single-use containers. A lot of plastic bottles and tubes fill our medicine cabinets, and sometimes the trash bin, too. With a few adjustments, and a couple great products, you can cut back waste in your bathroom.
Gipson’s Golden
John Gipson started beekeeping in 1987 as a hobby and a way to spend time with his kids. The hobby took off, and Santa Rosa-based Gipson’s Golden is now a leading producer of raw honey. The Gipson’s built the company from the ground up: starting out small, they expanded into producing so much honey that they had to give it …
Melissa’s Breads
Based in Tiburon, Melissa honed her craft as a professionally trained chef with experience both in Michelin-starred restaurants and for private clients. In 2022, frustrated by the lack of clean, wheat-free bread options, Melissa began baking her own. No gums, no soy, no yeast, no dairy, no refined sugars. No seed oils. Melissa’s Breads are composed of ancient grain flours, …
Wild&Tea
Formerly Wild Terra, Wild&Tea is an apothecary located in the Highland Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. They specialize in biodynamic herbs, tea and spices. In 2024, the winds of change brought about a legal name change, as well as a shift from brick and mortar to an online shop. We reap the benefits as Wild&Tea has expanded their retail reach …
Ritual Chocolate
The story of Ritual Chocolate begins in a tiny 400-square-foot studio turned test kitchen in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Anna Seears and Robert Stout were driven by a dream to change an industry that was broken. It was 2008 and they felt high quality chocolate was hard to come by, with little transparency in production and sourcing. They named …
Flour Craft
Heather Hardcastle eliminated gluten from her diet over 20 years ago. When she found it difficult to purchase the treats she craved, she decided to make them herself. Using the techniques she learned at The Culinary Institute of America, and through much trial and error, she mastered the art of creating gluten-free recipes that had incredible taste and quality.

Queens
Clara and Eddo Lee opened their innovative Korean restaurant, Queens Superette, in San Francisco’s Sunset district in 2019. The pandemic hit their small business hard, and they closed the shop in 2023. The pair pivoted to wholesale and online orders, focusing on traditional fermentation and preservation techniques, and working directly with local farms. The goal of Queens is to create …
South River
Miso pioneers Christian and Gaella Ewell met in Boston in 1976 when they were students of macrobiotic teachers Michio and Aveline Kushi. Both of their dads had died of cancer young, and they wanted to explore a macrobiotic lifestyle to maintain good health. They were staying with the Kushis, and eating miso soup for breakfast every morning. At that time, …
Farmhouse Culture
While working as a chef in Europe, founder Kathryn Lukas encountered two compelling truths. One, fermentation is fascinating. And two, her friends in the US had no idea. Inspired, Kathryn returned home with a clear message: Fermentation is going to have a positive impact on lives. In short order, she assembled a crew, now known as Farmhouse Culture, to spread …
Cookie Chachi
To Kabir, Yasmin and Saajan, Cookie Chachi is more than a bakery—it’s a love letter to their late grandmother whose warmth and cherished recipes continue to inspire them. The husband, wife, and brother team come from a vibrant Mexican and Indian diaspora, and named Cookie Chachi after the Punjabi word for ‘aunt’, Yasmin’s nickname. The trio makes cookies daily in …
Rebel
When Fred Zwar and Kirsten Maitland pitched their artisan vegan cheese company Rebel Cheese on Shark Tank, Mark Cuban jumped on the opportunity to invest. The Texas pair’s plant based cheeses are that good. Fred and Kirsten shared a love of cheese, especially holiday charcuterie boards, they said. After deciding to go vegan, they weren’t satisfied with the options they …
Dinner in 5-ish ingredients: Spring edition
Spring asparagus takes center stage in this satisfying meal. Risotto is a simple dish, but each ingredient has a chance to shine, from artisan Italian rice, to the butter you choose. You can use the staples in your fridge, but we recommend the best bouillon, parmesan, and a dry white to hit the perfect notes. Enjoy the wine while stirring, and serve the most delicious butter (the French one!) with bread and radishes as an appetizer. All ingredients are available here at Driver’s Market, including California grown organic asparagus.
Workshop recap
We had fun Around the Table learning to make fire cider at our hand-on workshop last month. Herbalist Danya Mosgovian taught us the health benefits of the traditional remedy made with apple cider vinegar, honey, onions, jalapeno peppers, ginger, garlic, and more – all organic ingredients from our produce shelves.
Wellness in 2025
Our bodies use minerals for many functions, including bone, heart, and brain health. Minerals are also key to hydration as well as enzyme and hormone production. While theoretically we get most of the minerals we need by eating a wide variety of foods, in some cases a healthcare provider may suggest a mineral supplement. Learn how you can achieve your wellness goals with a look at products in our supplement department.
