TASTINGS CUTS THE RIBBON AT THE YMCA's MANSFIELD HEALTHY FUTURES COMMUNITY GARDEN
Chef Lacy was recently on hand at a ribbon cutting ceremony with Mansfield Selectman Olivier Kozlowski and State Representative Jay Barrows. The ceremony marked the 2nd annual opening of the Mansfield Healthy Futures Community Garden. Tastings has leased a plot and Chef Lacy and his team have planted a wide range of produce which we will be featuring on our menu in the months ahead. The farm will be completely organic with no pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers in use.
In addition to produce, Chef planted three varieties of hops. The hops will take a couple of years to mature, but when it does, our friends at Peak Organic will brew our very own signature beer incorporating our home grown hops...how cool will that be???
Check out a news story on the event by clicking the pic above and view more pictures from the ribbon cutting as well as shots of Ben and his team working the land at our Facebook Photo Albumn by clicking below.

 MEET ART CHAMBERLAND,
GM & BEVERAGE DIRECTOR
We are thrilled to introduce our new General Manager & Beverage Director. Art joined the Tastings team just over a week ago. Originally from Chicopee, MA he began his restaurant career at age 16 for a local, family owned business. After four years at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, where he bartended full time while receiving his BA in psychology, he moved to Boston to pursue his first restaurant management position. After a little over a year in Boston an opportunity presented itself in Southern California and he made the move cross country. After a couple of years in the night club industry he accepted a GM position with a small Gastro Pub concept. He helped build the training and beverage programs for the pubs as they went from three units to twelve in the span of just four years. He opened and managed pubs in Las Vegas, Chicago and New Jersey. The pub background has helped to teach Art about the meaning of hospitality and making customers feel truly at home. During his time with the pubs he was instrumental in developing very successful programs and events to give back to local charities, which he is excited to continue here in Foxborough.
With the birth of their daughter, Art and his wife Sarah returned to Massachusetts. After a brief hiatus away from the restaurant business, Art was selected to be the General Manager here at Tastings. He is looking forward to developing relationships with existing guests as well as reaching out to new guests and making them a part of our big, extended family! |
