My friends are incredibly creative when it comes to birthday presents. I was treated to a farm-to-table dinner at this farmette, and it was enchanting. We sat at a table for about 30 people, and christmas lights were strung overhead and near the creek, which made it magical as the sun went down. We met a goat, and some chickens (please google Mark Wahlberg talks to animals), and I avoided the llama. I think it's smart to avoid llamas. Everyone brought a few bottles of wine, so we started drinking and walking around the gardens, and we got to cut zinnias for the table.
Once we were seated, there was white bean dip, and a basil chutney with some homemade crackers. The crackers had seeds in them from the garden. We ate flowers, and beets, herbs, and root vegetables, and it just kept coming. For the main course, there was pork that had been cooked in lavender chamomile brine. The dessert was apple pie with cheddar baked in the crust.
This was my first time hanging out with the food before eating it, and I am a fan.
