Alabama’s Premier Farm-to-Fork Celebration

Graze showcases the amazing food alchemy that can come from collaborations between farmers and chefs who are equally committed to quality, craft, and to growing a rich, locally rooted food system. Farmer-chef pairs will each collaborate on a single dish.

The farmers supply an ingredient, one that’s seasonal and/or unique to their farm, and the chef creates a dish that may be unique to the event, or one they’d like to re-visit, or test. Sample sizes will be served to picnickers as they graze.

Farm-to-Fork Excellence

Sample diverse signature dishes created through collaborations between Alabama’s finest chefs and local farmers. Each dish tells a story of partnership, sustainability, and the incredible flavors that emerge when culinary artistry meets fresh, local ingredients.
