About the Menu
The Harvest Feast will feature themes and dishes near and dear to Chef Erik’s passions. One of the missions of the Root to Table Culinary Series is to highlight the products of our local farmers. This event will be no different as Chef Erik plans to craft the majority of the menu around local items found here in Virginia.
The evening will see guests enjoy a grazing station, homemade pasta, and Chef Erik’s staple dish.
Dessert will rap up the evening with a special Peach Cobbler & Ice Cream from one of our guest chefs.
