bring the farm home
june 11, 2024
our first shindig dinner of the season, at Frank’s House!
we were welcomed with an herbaceous cocktail & addicting bites as we mingled with new & old friends. we gathered around a long table for a multi-course family-style feast by Chefs Gina & Madison with Dancing Greens veg along with products from those we admire. the night was made possible by our amazing partners Farm to People, Farm.One, Groundcycle, Afterlife Mushrooms, Matriark, Renewal Mill, Simpli, Soom, Lubanzi Wine & Parch. we heard inspiring & joyful words from around the table. yes, Madison asked for speeches, and we obliged!! we learned about how our veggies are grown from Farmer Jamie, how easy (and fun!) composting can be, & were surrounded by folks passionate about no-waste. the brilliant Kelsey Cherry captured the energy of the evening. and our guests went home with a goodie bag full of products from our partners & a plant for our windowsills.
the biggest thank you to Gina for creating & sharing Frank’s House with us. and to Cristina, Hannah & Lydia, you are stars that we are grateful to be in orbit with.
