Heirloom tomatoes from Greensgrow

(last year's bounty)

Everyone's favorite Kensington community farm initiative is inviting you to dinner.� Chef Corbin Evans will man the grill at Greensgrow's first-ever farm dinner on Thursday, July 30, where the table will be set amidst the profusion of plants under the stars.

The $45, five-course meal will benefit the Kensington Community Kitchen, Greensgrow's project creating new food opportunities in Philadelphia neighborhoods.� The menu, which is not quite finalized, will include a seasonal heirloom salad, house smoked fish appetizer, fresh fruit and local cheese, main course and fresh roasted coffee and dessert.� In a fun twist on their community-building ethos, all guests will be asked to switch seats in the middle of the meal to better get to know their neighbors.� If you choose to enhance your meal with adult beverages, you may feel free to BYOB.

Seating is limited, so RSVP to Erik@greensgrow.org for reservations.

Greensgrow Farms First Farm Dinner, Thu., July 30, 6:30 p.m., $45, 2501 E. Cumberland St., 215-427-2702, greensgrow.org
