Event
Upstate Local Farm Dinner and Tour
A Springtime celebration of local, sustainably-produced food and wine from farmers and producers in and around Upstate South Carolina. This festive evening will include a pre-dinner farm tour, a cocktail reception and a roving dinner. The dinner will be held in the courtyard at picturesque La Bastide Country Inn and Restaurant in Traveler's Rest, SC, which offers breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and local vineyard. The highlight will be the more than a dozen local farmers and producers at multiple tasting stations, where you will meet and learn more about the hard-working folks who grow our food and savor the wide variety of flavors available in the Upstate. Each dish will be prepared by La Bastide's Executive Chef Joey Pesner. Proceeds from this dinner will be used to advance local, sustainable farming in our region by creating micro-loan funds and research grants, and supporting the public and farmer education programs organized by the School.
The farm tour will take place at The Cliffs Organic Farm, which is a farm partner with the Upstate School of Sustainable Agriculture. The organic farm operation includes several greenhouses as well as a shitake mushroom production area, extensive cut-flower production fields and uses cover crop rotation programs as well as farm-scaping. In addition to traditional spring and summer vegetable crops, they have several specialty and gourmet items which support demand from six Cliffs communities. Enjoy a full tour of the farm and wine tasting station.
