Welcome to the Second "Soil To Soul" Dinner of SUMMER 2024

The theme for this Season is: We Are Where We Eat

Dinner #2 is a multicourse, family-style dinner, with seasonal N/A beverage pairing from Free Spirit Bevco and local beer/wine available for purchase through our gracious host, Zee's Rooftop.

This dinner will feature a special talk from our friend Wilder Jones, of Wild Spaces Farm and Raw Dairy. Wilder is a second generation regenerative farmer producing some of the best raw milk, yogurt, and other seasonal goodies.

The menu for each dinner features over 15 dishes, highlighting local seasonal ingredients, while tying together familiar and new local flavors. Gut health is a priority, so there will be a full ferments bar by The Good Food Farmacy

The dishes of this dinner will be rooted in the land, cuisine using locally grown, foraged, and fermented ingredients.
