The menu for the 2012 Farm-to-Table dinner. |
Crab stuffed anaheim pepper. |
Even though the Page County Grown farm tour is only in its
second year, the annual farm-to-table dinner, held this year at the Mimslyn
Inn, just as it was last year, is a great tradition. So I’ll close out my series of posts on the
2012 farm tour with a quick post about the dinner.

The farm-to-table dinner features dishes that are put
together from local products grown at the farms the tour visited that day. This year, the sourcing went like this:
·
Tomatoes and basil: Khimaira Farm
·
Eggs:
Raise it Right Farm
·
Tomatoes and Potatoes: Survivor Farm
·
Short Ribs:
Skyline Premium Meats
·
Corn, Cucumbers, and Peppers: Long Acres Farm
·
Chicken, Eggplant, Corn, Anaheim Peppers,
Tomatoes, and Zucchini: Public House
Produce
Chicken ravioli. |
·
Wine Pairings:
Wisteria Farm and Vineyards
Of course, the photos speak for themselves, so I have one of
each course, along with the menu.
Now, this was the second farm-to-table dinner at the Mimslyn
that Mary and I were able to take in this year – we were able to visit early
with our neighbors Steve and Noelle, when they were in town from New
Mexico. I’ve put a link to that meal
below...I'd also link to last year’s dinner, but that was also the weekend of the hurricane, and I guess I didn't write it up
Short ribs with summer squash au gratin. |
The Mimslyn continues to host farm-to-table dinners for the
remainder of the growing season. I hope
they’ll keep this up next year; it’s really something to look forward to – and in
any case, Mary and I will be at the farm tour dinner next year, you can count
on it!
