Toyota Farm to Table Tour

Hooray for Hillsdale! The weather was beautiful, the food was top-notch, and we were thrilled to help ring in the springtime with our friends in Oregon.

And after seven amazing stops at some of the top farmers markets in the country, it’s time for the 2011 Toyota Farm to Table Tour to come to an end! Many thanks to the market directors, chefs, farmers, and market goers who helped make each and every event special.

If you didn’t make it to this year’s tour, here’s a quick recap video from our stop at the South Pasadena Farmers Market:

Thanks to everyone who made it out to the South Pasadena Farmers Market yesterday for the Toyota Farm to Table Tour. The chefs served some delicious food: Chef Tim Guiltinan of The Raymond Restaurant, prepared scallops with roasted Maitake mushrooms, sweet pea tendrils and sweet soy, and Sally Cook of Heirloom Bakery & Café who served up a sweet strawberry shortcake. Former Top Chef Masters contestant and award-winning chef Susan Feniger of STREET even joined in on the fun! Hope you all enjoyed the food, and see everyone in Boise next week!
