Dana was also diagnosed as gluten intolerant with auto-immune disorder. Because of this she had to give up eating bread. Not only was the family in crisis, but this made her give up one of her joys after many years of catering and baking in France and Los Angeles. This news didn’t sit well and led Dana to the awareness of the chemicals and toxins in our food supply and agricultural practices. She switched back to sourdough baking, avidly read labels and wound up going to Germany to buy yeast that was free of sorbitol monostearate. With the 12 kilo minimum order requirement, the bakery was launched. the new mission was a commitment to organic feed, seed and soil is absolute.
What It’s About
Root to Table is the pinnacle for food lovers in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and West Virginia. What started as a way for our chefs and farmers to network, Root to Table has become a region-wide celebrated culinary experience. Unlike the average Farm to Table dinner, Root to Table focuses on Appalachian history, culture, and community. The Root to Table series has expanded from one event in 2017 to multiple events in both states!
Why Attend
Whether you’re passionate about food, interested in sustainable cooking practices and meeting the chefs supporting local sourcing, or are looking for a fun night with friends, Root to Table is for you. Each event is unique based on the location and our regional top renowned chefs with ingredients comprised of the West Virginia and Virginia’s agricultural wealth.
