GOAT FARM

Saturday, July 28

Townshend, VT

The sunshine stretched into the evening and the garden overflowed with flowers and bounty like no other time of the year--it was the perfect time to feast at the farm!

The Adventure Dinner team invited guests for an amble with goats little and big by their side! Map in hand, they hiked through a shaded thicket where cocktails and goats awaited up ahead. This trek was followed by a lavish feast at our 80 foot table filled to the brim with the garden green salads, local meats and fish. 

Each course featured a paired Stonecutter cocktail that drew from the season and the farm--wildflower spritzes, milk punch, and even those delicious goat milk caramels will made an appearance. 

We were excited to feature a little west coast meets east coast for our meal; chef Jessica Battilana--a Vermont native--was onsite from Cali working with chef Peter Varkonyi, the genius behind the menus of our Orchard and Pig + Pasture Adventure Dinners. And the deliciousness flowed!
