Join Us for Our Next
Meet-the-Farmer Dinner
"About as Local as Local Gets!"
with Ian Marvy
of Added Value Farm
in Red Hook, Brooklyn
Tuesday, September 30, 2008, at 7:00 p.m.
$85 per person plus tax and gratuity*
We are really excited to be hosting this four-course tasting menu
featuring varied and delicious produce grown right here in Brooklyn,
with wine pairings to complement each course.
This is a unique opportunity to meet the people who devote their
lives to growing sustainable, organic produce. Learn about how
they decide what to plant, how they care for their crops, and
what it's like to be a small, organic farmer, not only in Brooklyn,
but in a world of commercially-produced and marketed foods.
Also, meet Chef David Shea and learn all about the farm-restaurant
connection. Find out why applewood chooses to work almost exculsively
with small, local farms, and what you can do to shop, eat, and
live more sustainably!
As always, there will be plenty of oppotunity for Q&A
during, and after, the meal.
These events are seated communally and tend to sell out quickly.
Be sure to call us soon (718.768.2044) to reserve your spot!
*in response to many requests from previous MTF attendees, we
will start adding an automatic gratuity of 20% to the final bill.
