Farm and Chef, Wayne County’s Local Food Fest

Posted

HONESDALE, PA — SEEDS (Sustainable Energy Education & Development Sup- port), Wayne County Grown, and PASA (Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture) are pleased to announce the return of Farm and Chef on Sunday, October 2 from 12:30 PM to 4 PM at the Cooperage in Honesdale (www.thecooperageproject. org).

Local farm-fresh food from Wayne County farmers will be prepared by the region’s finest chefs. Local craft beverages and goods from local artisan vendors will be available for purchase; and there will be an old-fashioned pie auction and basket raffle featuring local and donated agriculture and sustainability items.

“People loved this Farm and Chef harvest celebration, which was held annually prior to the pandemic, and so it’s great to bring it back this fall to be held again at The Cooperage,” said Jane Bollinger, former SEEDS board member and former co-chair of Wayne County Grown (WCG). “We’re thrilled to welcome a num- ber of new chefs to our roster of returning chefs who helped establish this popular community event. And the best thing? SEEDS, WCG, and PASA are all working together toward building a more sus- tainable regional food system that supports our farmers for the future. Won’t you join us for this joint fundraiser to support our mission?”

Featured chefs and restau- rants include: Caleb Johnson of Native Food & Drink; Ben Cooper of Here & Now Brew- ing Company; Josh Tomson of The Lodge at Woodloch; Kate Woerhle of The Settlers Inn; Joseph Infante of Tick Tocks on Terrace; Donna Fitzgerald Vannan of Maximum Zen; and Laurie Perri of The Mustard Seed Cafe.

This is a ticketed event and tickets are required to be pre-purchased as they are expected to sell out quickly. Tickets cost $40 and will be available for purchase at the Hawley and Wayne County Farmers’ Markets, all 7 participating restaurants, online at bit.ly/FarmandChef22, or by calling Jane at (570) 253-5711. Proceeds from the event benefit SEEDS, Wayne County Grown, and PASA.
