The Farm School
Recently, part of our staff headed out to visit The Farm School in Athol, MA.
The Farm School is an amazing place where both adults and
children learn what it means to be stewards of the Earth.
We've been working with them for many years and
play host to their annual Big Pig Gig Fundraiser each year.
We had a wonderful time touring the property,
learning about their work, and feasting on a farm fresh supper.

A big thanks to our hosts!

Fresh & Honest" Wins The 2009 New England Book Award for "Best Cookbook"!
In November 2008, Chef Peter Davis released his first cookbook, "Fresh & Honest: Food from the Farms of New England and the Kitchen of Henrietta’s Table."
As the bandwagon of sustainable agriculture, organic eating and “slow food” becomes increasingly filled with diners, home cooks and professional chefs alike, there are a few who have been riding it—and arguably, driving it—for decades. Chef Peter Davis is one of those few, and Fresh & Honest is a monument to his love of delicious, fresh foods and the New England farmers and producers who supply them.
