Red Bud trees in bloom and the Houston Rodeo in full swing:  time to plant green beans and red potatoes.  

 

On another note, several of you have inquired as to when we are going to host another dinner event here at the farm. Call it "spring fever" or something, but we've gotten motivated and selected Saturday, April 2nd to be our first dinner event for 2011.  Jon Buchanan, Executive Chef at Trevisio, will be directing the culinary team.  The Saturday evening dinner will begin with a reception staring around 3:30 or so, followed by a farm tour around 4:45, with our first dinner course to begin around 6:00, and the final course likely being complete  around 8:30-9:00. You can then take a seat over next to the camp fire to finish your coffee or spirits if you'd like prior to heading home.  The dinner menu, still under development, will focus on locally grown seasonal food, and will likely include four or five courses. To get a "grasp" and more info/photos about our five farm dinners held back in 2010 visit  WDF Spring Dinners . A lot of participants in the past have put together groups of 4-12 to make a party within a party.  Some rent a bus, some hire a limousine , some just rendezvous here at the farm. Seating is "family style" so no matter if you are a party of one or twenty, you'll have more friends when you leave than when you arrived.
