There’s something special about sharing a warm bowl of soup on a chilly winter day — especially when it’s a family recipe passed down through generations. At Latham Seeds, we know traditions run deep, whether it’s on the farm, in the field or around the kitchen table. That’s why we’re excited to celebrate National Soup Month with a “souper” kickoff to one of our favorite times of year: the countdown to the Big Game!

This January, we’re bringing together the Latham family of dealers, customers and team members for a unique celebration. Our “Souper Bowl” series will spotlight favorite soup recipes from across Latham Country — hearty creations that have become game-day staples and wintertime must-haves. From tried-and-true classics to bold new flavors, we’ll share recipes that are sure to warm your soul and inspire your next meal.

As we approach the Big Game on February 9, stay tuned to our social channels for recipe reveals, cooking tips and maybe even a few surprises along the way. Whether you’re rooting for your team to take home the trophy or just looking for a new soup recipe to try, we can’t wait to share this “souper” journey with you.

Here’s to a season full of great food, great company and great games. Our first recipe won Latham’s chili cookoff last year (thanks Renata!) so be sure to find out why.

Let the “Souper Bowl” festivities begin!
