A LATE HARVEST FEAST `FARM TO TABLE

Farm to table dinners are my absolute favorite events to shoot.  I have had the pleasure of shooting Chef Cody from Della Terra at a SnoValley Tilth Dinner last summer and was eager to be part of his most recent fundraising event in partnership with Basil and Salt magazine .  

Please enjoy a few photos from the evening~ Robin Marie Photography

As the guest began to arrive at THE BARN AT HOLLY FARM, a wonderful event venue located in Bothell Washington the smells were already coming from the kitchen. 

Wine maker Kevin Lantz from LANTZ CELLARS in Lake Stevens provided the wine which was perfectly paired with the Beautiful    hors d'œuvres, a brucetta bar and crab cakes

The weather in the seattle area has been super smoky this summer but today the smoke seemed to clear long enough for the guests to  mingle and peruse the  various auction items while enjoying themselves on the lower patio at The Barn at Holly Farms.  

The tables were beautifully set and ready for the feast to begin.  I can't get over the amazing light in the upper Barn area, a photographers dream.  What a Lovely Venue.   The open beam ceiling and the Hay loft add a touch of old world charm.  The Barn at Holly Farm is a perfect venue to host your private celebration! Wedding, anniversary, birthday, corporate team building or company theme party, our 96 year old vintage barn and working equestrian farm is set on 17 acres of tranquil farm land.

The evening was amazing.  Chef Cody's Passion for food and community was shining through his offerings.    Chef Cody explained that he had  sourced the majority of the ingredients from within the community from local farms and producers, many of which are right down the road.Not only was this  a delicious dinner, but it will also help Della Terra  in their mission of supporting local farmers and producers. The funds will allow them to obtain and renovate a catering kitchen of their own, in  Historic Downtown Snohomish.  
 This launch party will help Chef Cody to achieve his goals.
