We’re thrilled to announce the 2012 Autumn Harvest Supper. We’re partnering with Spiaggia chefs Sarah Grueneberg and Chris Marchino to produce a unforgettable farm dining experience.
Eat honey fresh from the comb, dance to bluegrass tunes, drink local libations, and dine on world class dishes at a night you’re sure to remember.
Join us at Heritage Prairie Farm on October 21, 2012 from 3pm to 6pm! Tickets include a round trip chartered bus ride.
The Chipotle Cultivate Festival returns to Chicago’s Lincoln Park on September 15. Cultivate brings together food, farmers, chefs, and artisans to immerse festival goers with all of the best of the Good Food Movement.
Featuring many of Chicago’s very own food and musical talent, you’ll have a truly local experience as you visit the event, and you’ll see some familiar faces from the Good Food Festival & Conference and Chicago area farmers markets. With two chef demonstration tents, a music stage, artisan food hall, and kids area, there’s something for everyone at this exciting festival.
Did you know that all of our current staff were hired after volunteering for one of our events?
Without our volunteers we wouldn’t be able to produce or attend the events we do, spreading the word about Good Food. If you’ve been looking to be more involved in the Good Food Movement, these are great opportunities that can teach you a lot about the field.
We ask that volunteers commit to two hour blocks. Email, volunteer@familyfarmed.org with your availability. Times are first come first served.
