Chef Fest 2021

What better way to top off an afternoon filled with sensational farm-forward dishes and refreshing sips than with creamy (and creative!) soft serve ice cream? For our 2021 Chef Fest event, we have teamed up with Underground Creamery and recruited one of our farmers and a few of our 2021 chefs and partners to each create a custom soft serve flavor that shows the true diversity of veggies and herbs! That’s right, farm-to-cone!

Josh Deleon of Underground Creamery and Island Breeze Rentals will welcome guests into our Soft Serve Station and guide guests through an experience of unique flavors and interesting combinations. Each guest will be able to chat with Josh about the process of making ice cream and soft serve while sampling flavors from each of the folks below:

SOFT SERVE STATION CHEFS
Josh Rosas, Harvest Green Village Farm
Jane Wild, Kids Cooking Activation Chef
Young Hustler Coffee
Chef E.J. Miller, The Sporting Club
Chef Dawn Burrell, Late August and Bravo Top Chef Contestant
Chef Sasha Grumman, Bravo Top Chef Contestant

Entry into the Soft Serve Station tent costs $10 and includes tastings of all 6 of our custom soft serve ice cream flavors! This activation is limited to a select number of guests; advance on-line purchasing is encouraged. You must have a ticket to Chef Fest 2021 to purchase tickets to add-on experiences.

A great cup of coffee is crafted with great care in every step of production and at the 2021 Chef Fest event, coffee aficionados will have the opportunity to dive deep into each stage of that process. We have partnered with Young Hustler Coffee, a local coffee company specializing in sourcing single-origin coffee and both roasting and brewing every batch to perfection. On event day, a select number of event attendees will have access to their tent for a hands-on educational demonstration that dives deep into the world of high quality coffee. Guests will sample coffee brewed with 2 different methods as well as walk out with a 8oz cup of their choice and a gift of hand-roasted beans.

The struggle of getting kids to eat their veggies is one of the oldest known to man (and moms). There are books and blogs and videos and funny plates all aimed to assist in this very matter. Well, here at Chef Fest we have some tricks of our own: get your kids involved! Let them dig deep into the dirt and roll up their sleeves with a talented chef (who also happens to be a parent) and let’s see what happens!

Join Chef Jane Wild in a semi-private, all veggie, cooking class just for kids! Here they will get a quick lesson on where their food comes from as well as fun ways they can prepare them at home in a manner that is tasty, wholesome, and inviting. There will be three (3) classes throughout the day, each lasting 30 minutes and limited to 10 kids each (ages 5 - 12 suggested).

Kids meet at the chicken coop 15 minutes before their scheduled start time. Entry into the Kids Cooking Class costs $20 and includes all the ingredients + cooking tools needed.
