Dear Local Food & Sustainability Enthusiasts,
Please join us and enjoy an exquisite meal that supports the efforts of
local farms to share the bountiful harvest of our region with all!
I am pleased to invite you to the 2009 Harvest Dinners on the Farm that
benefit the Healthy Food for All program.
Imagine fine dining in the fields with a menu featuring ingredients
harvested from just steps away and neighboring farms. Come taste
ordinary foods made extraordinary by well renowned chefs cooking right
in front of you. Bring out the delicate flavors of the region with wine
paired with each course by one of our finest Finger Lakes wineries. Hear
the stories from the farmers, winemakers and chefs themselves throughout
the evening and peruse the fields that are growing your food.
These truly are unique and memorable culinary experiences not to be
missed. All proceeds go to the Healthy Food for All Program, a
collaborative effort of local farms and Cooperative Extension of
Tompkins County to provide subsidized CSA shares to low-income families
in our community.
Tickets are $75 and can be purchased by going to
www.healthyfoodforall.org. Reservations are required and seating is
limited so don't delay. For more info please visit Healthy Food for All
or contact CCE at 607.272.2292.
