OUR PASSION

We’re the kind of people that use salsa to dress up as many meals as socially acceptable. Chips? Yes. Eggs? Of course. Cardboard? Sure!

Our creators made Cush’s Homegrown Salsa with piquancy and versatility in mind.

Founded in 2007, Chris Cushing used locally sourced vegetables from his home of Old Lyme, CT and neighboring towns. Cush’s Homegrown Salsas are always made in small batches with fresh, locally sourced produce. These chunky salsas begin with tomato, onion, bell pepper, honey, garlic, and spices for almost all of our recipes, then add special ingredients such as red jalapeño to make our signature Red Zone. Still, the total ingredient count never exceeds eight.

The Cushing family has always been involved in charity work throughout the region, including hosting a collection for Katrina hurricane relief; building a food collection float for the Niantic light parade; and even building two houses with Extreme Home Makeover. When we decided to start the company, one of the goals was to connect our success with the well being of others. To accomplish this, charities will receive a percentage of the company’s profits each quarter. The products that Cush’s makes have another purpose and that is to give you a healthy choice of the chemical filled national brands. When we started thinking about making our product, Cush’s wanted to make the best tasting salsa that is made with the freshest ingredients and contain no unwanted chemicals.
