Cultivating Connection: Exploring Velvet Buffalo's Harrison Market Partnership in Beloit

Velvet Buffalo Modern Italian offers a menu inspired by the many regions of Italy with house-made pastas, artisanal bread, sustainably sourced seafood and a unique spin on desserts. While the dishes are inspired by regions from afar, the ingredients that make them up can be found close to home.



Velvet Buffalo sources a variety of produce from our friends at Harrison Market, located just a few miles down the road. Harrison Market is a family-owned farm who’s been growing organic produce for the community for over fifteen years. They’re a USDA certified organic farm who prides themselves on growing food using organic methods, in the most sustainable way possible.
