Farm to Table – A Slow Food Cape Cod Educational Event

Slow Food Cape Cod could think of no better way to provide a fitting finale for the Cape Land and Sea Harvest (CLASH), than a shared a meal, featuring the bounty of our local foods. The setting for such a feast is at the source, outdoors in a field at Cape Cod Organic Farm.  We have organized a group of chefs, farmers, fisherman, wine makers, cheese artisans, bean roasters, brewers, and musicians to unite for an afternoon of education and fun. Our host farmer is Tim Friary; the date is September 27th at 3:00 PM, till it gets dark.  Profits will be donated to the Food Bank, in the form of real food we purchase from locals farmers.

The idea of the Farm to Table is to gain a better understanding of the connection between the earth and the food on our plate. We will enjoy a leisurely meal, while we meet our local food artisans and they educate us on all aspects of what is on our plate. We will be providing a 5 course meal, each paired with local wines:

- Les Hemmila, Barnstable Seafarms and Laura Scheel from Out of the Blue will set up a raw bar for us to taste both Barnstable and Wellfleet Oysters.

- Joe Dunn, of The Island Merchant will create an amazing soup.

- Stephen Skelton, from The Glass Onion is going to prepare a pasta dish for us to share.

- Jerome Watkins from Lyric will showcase the farms' fresh vegetables throughout the meal.

- Liam Luttrell-Rowland from LunaSoul Foods is the man at the helm for our catch from the sea.

- Peter Hyde, Blue Moon Bistro is on the grill for our meat, secured from NEFF (North East Family Farm). 

- Veronica Worthington, Pleasant Lake Farm will create our salad, accompanied by an assortment of New England farmstead cheeses.

- Paul Olaf Lively, from Chef Paul’s Truffles will wow us with the finale, followed by coffee from The Beanstock Roasters.

- We will be tasting wines selected from Truro and Westport Vineyards, and of course be serving Cape Cod Beer. And did we mention music? Yes, we have Robertchez playing jazz classics and originals (some written just for Slow Food) to lift our spirits and set the mood.
