POTLUCK at TABLE
Please join Slow Food Westchester
at Table Local Market
this month to celebrate the beginning of Spring.
Experience a very special local market that celebrates local farmers
and purveyors. You’ll also share sumptuous food provided by some of the most passionate locavores anywhere—you!
This event is a potluck, so we urge you to reach out to local farms and purveyors to create a dish you can share with others. The warm spring air might inspire dishes with early spring greens (lettuces or spinach), earthy morels, bright green asparagus, fingerling potatoes or perhaps the last apples of the season.
Table will provide wine (Fountain Head Wines/Bedford Hills), beer (Captain Lawrence/Pleasantville) and other refreshments, as well as a seasonal dish of their own along with spectacular local breads and cheeses.
So leave the kiddies at home and bring a seasonal dish and cutlery (we're trying to be sustainable here) to share with your fellow locavores.
Date: May 17th (Sunday)
Time: 6pm - 8pm
Address: Table Local Market
11 Babbit Road, Bedford Hills, NY 10507

LUNCH BUNCH REMINDER
This Friday, April 3, we will meet at The Stone Barn Center for Food and Agriculture. Our adventure will begin with a short tour of the grounds, animals, and greenhouse. Spring is alive and well on the Farm. The Berkshire Pigs have farrowed and they have welcomed yet another round of piglets. The field is being tilled and planted with parnsips and transplanted with broccoli and kale. The new poults are laying egges by the dozens. Afterwards we will drop by the cafe, say hello to Alberto and pick up lunch. I recommend the famous egg salad. You can even pick up a few dozen eggs to take home and make your own salad. Finally, we will gather in the Hay Barn to discuss our tour, the future of food and enjoy the bounty of Stone Barns.
RSVP by April 2 to Jan Frasier Maltby, at jan@jmaltby.com. Unfortunately, we have to limit this month to 10 people.

SPRING IS COMING
The news from the Food World is exciting. Michelle Obama is planting a garden at the White House, the New York Times asks "Is a Food Revolution Now in Season"? and my sister announced that she is tearing up her lawn and putting in an organic garden. I think Spring is coming and a bright sun will shine on the mission of Slow Food. Everyone has the right to a clean, fair and healthy food system.
In keeping with our mission, Slow Food Westchester continues to plan events to spread the word. This Wednesday, we are hosting a Sold-Out event with the Westchester and Rockland Dietetic Association at Peter Pratt's. You can learn more about it from my previous blog. It looks like the Press will be there and I will report back on it next week. Don't forget our second, LUNCH BUNCH, next Friday, April 3. Will get back soon on a location. Our monthly BREAKFAST MEETING, at the Bedford Post is on April 14. May 4th we will be hosting a LOCAL TASTING EVENT with the the Westchester and Lower Connecticut Chef's Association at the Doral Arrowood. More on that next week.
Out and about the county there is also much going on. Brian Lewis, of the famous, BEDFORD POST, is doing Sunday evening cooking classes. For $100 dollars you get to learn from best. Sign up yourself or get a group of friends together. You bring your own wine and eat what you cook. What more could you want. Call Deborah Burman at 914-234-7800. They are Sundays, from 5-8.
Also, my friend John Boy is moving down county. His fabulous food will be available at DeCicco's in Ardsley, 21 Center Street. Last week I bought 2 Pork Shoulders from John at the County Center and my family has been enjoying them all week. We had Pulled Pork, Carnitas, Asian Pork in Lettuce Wraps and have more in the freezer.
Have a great week and happy eating.
