Volunteer chefs have gathered at Theresa’s house and are busily washing and chopping and blending and baking and seasoning and spicing in preparation for the Feast of the Good Samaritan tomorrow in the Garden.
All the veggies are from the gardens at Kilbourn Park or Clarke Street, or from the farmers markets in Riverwest or Fondy, with a few exceptions. Pie pumpkins came from the Outpost and cilantro from Riverwest Coop. But mostly the food is fresh fresh fresh and from right here!
Local, grass fed organic lamb, just delivered today. The chefs are getting ready to marinate the meat overnight. Tomorrow morning we’ll roast it over coals on a rotisserie powered by solar-charged batteries, right out in the garden.
We’ll be setting up tents and tables tomorrow starting at noon. If anyone wants to come early and help, you would be most welcome. We’ll have an outdoor kitchen set up and going, and start serving hors d’oeuvres at about 4PM. We’ll start the buffet line at about 5. Sundown is at 6:30, so we’ll try to wrap up and be out of the park by 7 or 7:30. There will be some after-parties, so plan for a full night of fun, Riverwest-style.
See you in the Garden!
