BOUNTIFUL HARVEST SUPPER IN THE ARTISTS’ BARN
Saunter amidst the rolling hills, ancient redwoods and California oaks surrounding the rustic barn setting with breathtaking views of brilliant blue Pacific.
Chefs Mark Sullivan and Dmitry Elperin of Spruce and The Village Pub will prepare an elegant five-course Harvest Supper featuring just-picked organic vegetables and herbs from SMIP Ranch Produce. Delicious hors d’oeuvres and wine kick-off the afternoon for auction previews and artful camaraderie at 3pm, followed by a savory supper served promptly at 4pm, live performance by Pamela Z, a dazzling dessert buffet and a sunset champagne toast.
Contributed by Chefs Mark Sullivan and Dmitry Elperin of Spruce and The Village Pub.
