Let’s celebrate the season with Berry Good Food, Herb and Wood, and Darnall Charter School! Executive Chef, Carlos Anthony will be serving up a three course, family style dinner inspired by the very school garden you’ll be dining in! We will be hosted by Jessica Eves, school garden and culinary educator/coordinator at Darnall. Berry Good Food first became acquainted with Jessica’s amazing program through our, “Seeds for the Future” School Garden Grant. In this past year, we’ve collaborated on a garden-to-table cooking class put on by Chef Carlos and the Herb and Wood team, and have supported their strawberry planting project. We know this is just the beginning of what’s possible for this school garden collaboration. Your support of this dinner will go directly towards garden and cooking initiatives that serve as building blocks for community health and well being. Join us at the table as we grow a food movement at Darnall Charter School! Berry Good Food is a grassroots nonprofit organization that aims to tackle the barriers—educational, economic, systemic, infrastructural—standing between people in our region and local, sustainably produced food. Framed around the principles of food security and food education, BGF’s programs include school garden grants, expert panel discussions, affordable cooking classes, and farm-to-table dinners. BGF empowers our community by building bridges between farmers, chefs, scientists, and citizens to challenge the industrial food system while advocating for access to healthy food for all.
