Read on to hear about how Basil & Brie got started here in the harbor.
Jennifer Anderson is a wife and mother of two with a passion for using her creative skill in the kitchen to bring joy to others. When she lost her job in catering due to the impact that 2020 had on small businesses, she was encouraged by another local entrepreneur to start something of her own. A friend of a friend ran a successful charcuterie business in Texas and Jenn was intrigued. She called the owner, did her research, and got to work putting together a business plan. A few short months later she opened Basil & Brie.
Basil & Brie is the first business of its kind in Gig Harbor. Jenn offers a variety of charcuterie boards, grazing boxes, and charcuterie cones customized for any occasion and budget. Jenn’s charcuterie boards are made-to-order and can include an assortment of choice deli meats, gourmet cheeses, artisan crackers, fresh and dried fruits, premium olives, seasoned nuts, chocolate truffles, locally made cookies, and other delectable offerings arranged so beautifully it will take your event to the next level. Serving Gig Harbor and the surrounding communities, Basil & Brie has everything from simple boards to elegant spreads for individuals, corporate orders, charity events, birthday parties, showers, and weddings.
Jennifer Anderson enjoys being hands-on within the Gig Harbor community. She has taught charcuterie classes at AR Workshop Gig Harbor, utilizes Giggle Harbor for customized decor items, and collaborates with other small local businesses and artists whenever possible. Jenn regularly donates proceeds and products to local charities and nearby public school auctions. She is a member of the Gig Harbor Chamber of Commerce, as well as several business groups.
