Farm-to-Table-Feast: Nourishing Minds and Bodies Farm Talk with Paul Ward

    • Society & Culture

🌾🍴 Step right up, farmers and foodies alike! It's lunchtime on Farm Talk, and let me tell you, today's episode is a feast for the senses! Join Paul as he embarks on a culinary adventure like no other, delving into the world of wholesome, farm-fresh goodness with none other than the remarkable Hilary Boynton.
Picture this: nestled in the heart of Topanga Canyon lies the Manzanita School, where Hilary reigns supreme over a lunch program that's anything but ordinary. Bid farewell to bland PBJ sandwiches and bland tater tots, because Hilary's culinary creations are a symphony of flavor and tradition. Sourdough bread, lovingly fermented and baked on-site, awaits, accompanied by generous slathers of golden ghee, slow-roasted pork shoulder, and vibrant swiss chard.
But that's just the beginning of Hilary's epicurean odyssey. Drawing inspiration from ancient traditions and culinary wisdom from around the globe, she crafts meals that not only satisfy hunger but nourish body and soul. Every ingredient is handpicked from local farms, including the esteemed Organic Pastures, Kandarian Organic Farms, and the illustrious Apricot Lane Farms, ensuring that every bite is bursting with freshness and flavor.
But Hilary's mission goes beyond just serving up sensational meals. With a passion for education as robust as her flavors, she offers immersive cooking classes that empower students to embrace the art of mindful eating and conscious cooking. Because as Hilary believes, when you know better, you do better.
So grab your forks and knives, folks, because today's lunch is a celebration of community, sustainability, and the timeless joy of good food. Don't miss out on this mouthwatering journey with Hilary Boynton on Farm Talk! 🌱🍽️
