Slow Food Lake Tahoe Supper in the Barn events

This sounds like fun! Sierra Valley Farms and Moody's Bistro and Lounge are teaming up to present a series of Slow Food Lake Tahoe, Supper in the Barn events. Here's a chance to eat great food on the land it was grown on, Sierra Valley Farms.

If you visit the Saturday farmers market on California street you've seen or met Gary. He's the guy with the organic greens, carrots, and drink mixes. This event info is on the calendar but I thought I'd get it out on a post because this type of event is what Slow Food is really all about. Knowing the people who grow your food, eating, talking, and enjoying who and what is at your table.

The first event will be open to Slow Food members and their guests (join Slow Food now and then join us for the first dinner!), and future events will be for everyone.

The member event is on Sunday, June 1st from 4pm to ? at Sierra Valley Farms. Farm tour from 4:00 - 5:00; 3 Course meal served family style, using all produce from the farm; live music.

The other events, open to everyone, cost $70 + tax and tip; BYOB; and will happen on:

Saturday May 31st at 4pm
Sunday July 13th at 4pm
Sunday September 21st at 4pm

Please call Moody's to reserve: Moody's Bistro & Lounge 530-587-5911.
