Christmas Eve spread. Obligatory velveeta, Rotel and Italian sausage dip, cheeses, English butter and crackers from Sunsinger Wines, Trader Joe's ( also roasted chestnuts from Trader Joe’s), Prairie Fruits Farm & Creamery, stuffed olives and Dirk Bodine’s favorite Ritz Crackers.

Please!

We were honored to host a great group of community members on our newly expanded farm this past Sunday for our Farm to Table Luncheon fundraiser! It was a gorgeous day and a good opportunity to show folks what this expansion is allowing us to do to improve our productivity and grow more good food for our community. Special thanks to Blue Dragonfly Catering for providing a delicious meal featuring our produce!

We have considerable fundraising left to complete our building and be able to move all our production onto our new farm next year! Please consider supporting us in this last push: https://www.solagratiacsa.com/help-us-grow

So, I was absent from the Greenhouse Café last weekend for an awesome event. I cooked with Tiffany at her local shows. She rocked both stage and kitchen! Super sweet person. Hopefully, I will get her to Monticello next year!! Tom Vrem and Guitar Foodie co-wrote an amazing cookbook with Tiffany. Volunteer staff rocked it! Thank you all for a great weekend!
