Innovation in Farming
4th Annual Faces of Farming Gala, Silent Auction and Farm to Table Feast
Do you love fresh, nourishing food and the hard-working souls who make it possible?
Join Central Oregon Locavore on Friday, May 3rd, at The Tetherow Resort Event Pavilion for an evening of artful and delicious surprise, designed to honor the hardy and dedicated people who grow and raise our food in Central Oregon.
This event will include a photograph narrative of our local farmers and ranchers, a silent auction, local wine, beer and cocktails, and an extensive menu showcasing the bounty of local farms and ranches brought to you by Chef Miguel and the culinary team at Tetherow.
This years theme is Innovation in Farming. As casually observed by many, and truly noticed by few, farmers are the ultimate innovators. From fixing broken machinery, to crafting complex security systems for curious livestock, to gently tricking plants to a higher yield, an extra month of production, or an early germination, farmers and ranchers are the ultimate craftsman. It takes a certain type of ingenuity, or mad genius, to contend with nature. And farmers have just that type of genius it takes. After all, necessity is the mother of creation. Faces of Farming serves to connect those passionate about our sustainability, cultivates strong relationships and celebrates the potential in all of us.
