What is Farm to Table?
Farm to table is all about knowing where your food comes from and celebrating the hard work of local growers and producers. It means fewer miles from farm to fork, fresher ingredients on your plate, and a direct investment back into our local economy.
Every bite supports the farmers and artisans who make our community vibrant.
