The Event ~ Farm to Table

Tim and I drove 28 miles south to a farm in the middle of nowhere (south of Harrisburg!) to be guests at a farm-to-table dinner.  The long table set for 45 guests was set up in the garden area, where baby turkeys were free-roaming, and right next to a stack of big round hay bales.  The event was to highlight foods grown from local producers.

Wine was served from a local winery.  Cheese provided by the local Victory Hills Cheese farm, honey from the local honey producer, chicken from the local farm, artisan bread from a local bread maker, corn on the cob from a local farmer, and Colorado peaches.   It was a five-course meal.

It was a fun evening.  We went with good friends Ernie and Connie Bussinger.  To my surprise this little farm had its own unique country market place.
 


It was a fun evening, weather was perfect, food was great, fellowship was inspiring.  I was lucky to get the last four tickets available after reading about it in the newspaper early one morning the week prior.  One instance where my new i-phone really was useful - getting on line to order tickets instantly!  A great event!  Glad we were among the guests to enjoy it!
