World food goes down-home at Glover Family Farm

Food and farm pairings don’t get much closer than a benefit planned for April 27 at Glover Family Farms, in Douglas County just over the border from Fulton.

Much of the meal, which celebrates the immigrant heritage that has shaped Atlanta’s foodways, will come from food raised on the farm. Sous chefs from some of the city’s top restaurants, including Repast, the Hil, Woodfire Grill and Restaurant Eugene, will prepare the food. The benefit is sponsored by Small Farms CSA, a community-supported agriculture program for Jenny Jack Sun and Love is Love Farms.

The meal benefits Slow Food Atlanta. A silent auction will raise funds for the community garden at Refugee Family Services, a Stone Mountain nonprofit that helps immigrant women and children move toward economic self-sufficiency.

Tickets are $45 and include the family-style dinner and drinks. The farm is at 3260 Highway 166 in Douglasville.
