Farm to Table Dinners

Farm to Table Dinners

The volunteers at the farm created our first “Farm to Table” vegetarian dinner here at Rancho Delicioso. We were fortunate to have so many talented chefs here at the same time, so everyone was able to add something. It was difficult to pick the perfect spot for the dinner. The geodesic dome was the most […]
