ABOUT
Farm Forage Fire
“A Dance Between Two Farms”
Sunday the 3rd of Jan 2021
3pm - Sunset
Venue: The Veld and Sea Glasshouse in Cape Point
What to expect: A good old-fashioned farm-to-table feast!
Join us celebrating the New Year at this unique pop-up where the season determines the menu. Dedicated to sustainable cuisine that will tantalize all of your senses, this slow paced, multi-course meal experience is curated and created using fresh seasonal ingredients from two farms – Good Luck Cottage in Stanford and Good Hope Gardens in Cape Point. We will be serving farm raised meats and organically grown veg using various fire cooking techniques: over coals, in a wood fired oven, in an earth oven and smoking methods. Included in the meal will be freshly baked breads, ferments, pickles, cured meats, wild herbs gathered from the mountainside, seaweeds foraged from the nearby coastline, edible flowers picked from the gardens, and offerings from our wild pantry that preserve moments and memories in time.
What is included: Botanical drinks and snacks on arrival, a summer inspired farm-style banquet. As you savor your meal, you’ll hear from those who have grown, caught, raised, or crafted the items on the table.
Who grew it: A set menu and food experience grown and created by four friends who want to share why they live the delicious lifestyle they do.
Hosted, led and fed by chef/homesteader Tabby Robertshaw and landscaper/farmer Alex Chouler from Graze Café and Good Luck Cottage in Stanford and forager/cook Roushanna Gray and landscape/farmer Tom Gray from Veld and Sea and Good Hope Gardens Nursery.
“The beauty of growing and raising your own food not only forms a connection to the roots of our daily sustenance, it’s an ongoing understanding and deep respect for the soil, seasons and cycles. On both of our small-scale farms, we are passionate about developing and evolving sustainable agricultural methods to work with nature and not against it.”
What to bring: An appetite and sense of adventure. Any questions you may have on farm steading, self-sufficiency or food gardens. Locally brewed beer and wild soda will be served with the meal, but you are welcome to bring a bottle of your own to enjoy with the meal.
