Event
Slow Food Eugene - Fourth Annual One Field Meal
The host farm this year is the Polyrock Ranch on Territorial Road. Alan and Deborah Mattson produce beefalo, beef and dairy products. They also lease acreage to David Hillman of Lost Creek Farms. Together they grow some of the best produce and meat in the southern Willamette Valley. And the ranch is drop dead gorgeous. You're gonna love this place. All of the food will come from this one farm. The
meal will be truly delicious and the company (you and your friends) will make it even better.
We are limiting ticket sales this year, so be sure to get your tickets early.
The meal will feature Beefalo. The hybrid breed of Beefalo combines the best qualities of bison and beef cattle. Beefalo offers the hardiness of bison with the quality beef of cattle that results in the leanest, healthiest meat around. We'll send you a complete menu soon.
This year we have two chefs Shane Tracey of Nib and John-Patrick Downey-McCarthy of Devour. Shane and his wife Tiffany have quickly become leaders in Eugene food culture. Their exquisite dessert creations are bite-sized pieces of art. And their savory menu at Nib is a great companion to their thoughtful wine pairings.

John-Patrick Downey-McCarthy has made Devour one of the freshest, most interesting restaurants in Eugene. I can only give you his web address because he has no street address. His refurbished 1971 VW micro bus is on the prowl everyday throughout Eugene and Springfield. Check out devoureugene.blogspot.com to see where he'll be from day-to-day. And don't be fooled by the bus. J.P. is an accomplished chef with formal training and extensive restaurant experience. Preview his cooking by checking out his roaming schedule on his blog and get a sandwich. http://devoureugene.blogspot.com/
Of course, we'll have music. The Conjugal Visitors will bring their farm-friendly string band out for the afternoon.
Our friends at Sweet Cheeks Winery and Oakshire Brewing Co. will provide wine and beer for an additional charge.
Bring your kids. This is an event for the entire family. Everyone will be invited to walk through the garden and see the Deck's animals. Please be aware that this is a working farm and you will have to supervise the kids that you bring along.
And one more bit of news. Through a great partnership with Megan Kemple and the Willamette Farm and Food Coalition's Farm-to-School program, two second grade classes from the Bethel School District visited the farm in June. Their families were invited to join us for the one field meal, so we're hoping to have some of those students and their parents will join us. We've always wanted to use this event to show kids that food grows out of the dirt. This year we're making it happen.
