Everyone’s favorite Kensington community farm initiative is inviting you to dinner. Chef Corbin Evans will man the grill at Greensgrow’s first-ever farm dinner on Thursday, July 30, where the table will be set amidst the profusion of plants under the stars.
The $45, five-course meal will benefit the Kensington Community Kitchen, Greensgrow’s project creating new food opportunities in Philadelphia neighborhoods. The menu, which is not quite finalized, will include a seasonal heirloom salad, house smoked fish appetizer, fresh fruit and local cheese, main course and fresh roasted coffee and dessert. In a fun twist on their community-building ethos, all guests will be asked to switch seats in the middle of the meal to better get to know their neighbors. If you choose to enhance your meal with adult beverages, you may feel free to BYOB.
Seating is limited, so RSVP to Erik@greensgrow.org for reservations.
Greensgrow Farms First Farm Dinner, Thu., July 30, 6:30 p.m., $45, 2501 E. Cumberland St., 215-427-2702, greensgrow.org
