A Gourmet Event
If you've been reading Gourmet magazine lately, you've probably noticed their increasing coverage of locally grown produce and sustainable agriculture. Now in conjunction with Grand Marnier, Gourmet magazine is hosting an event focused on these topics starting off with a tour of our very own Ferry Building.
After the tour the event continues with "A Spirited Conversation" with panelists Executive Chef Mark Dommen of One Market, Chef Chad Callahan of Fish and Chef Bridget Batson of Hawthorne Lane to be moderated by Dave Stockdale of CUESA (the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture). Top the whole thing off with cocktails and hors d'ouevres. Count me in!

Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market Bonanza!
The Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market is finally moving to its new home. It may seem odd, but its new home
