Slow Food Harrisburg welcomes fall at its annual Meet the Producers dinner and fundraiser. The reception and dinner will begin at 6:00 PM on September 28 at the Wildwood Conference Center, Harrisburg Area Community College (HACC).
Instructor Chef Autumn Patti, Chef Scott McKenzie and the students of the Culinary Arts Program at HACC will will transform locally-grown fruits, vegetables and pork into a sumptuous seasonal banquet.
This year’s protein not only provides the Culinary Arts students with a wide canvas to demonstrate their talents, but it also benefits members of the East End Livestock 4H Club, of Juniata County.
We’ll also highlight the fruits of the vine with wines to complement each course. This year, we feature the outstanding wines of Vynecrest Vineyards and Winery, winners at this year’s Pennsylvania Wine Excellence competition.
To tie it all together, the ripe, luscious fruit of late summer and autumn will be celebrated creatively throughout the dinner. Come meet our producers and savor food grown with love, prepared with passion and enjoyed with good cheer!
