2020 CT Farm-to-Chef Week August 16th – 22nd
We are still moving forward with our CT Farm-to-Chef Week because we think restaurants need our support more than ever! Like our Facebook page and stay tuned for the announcements.
Farm-to-Chef Week is open to all restaurants and food-service businesses in the state, it invites participants to create a special Farm-to-Chef menu that showcases Connecticut Grown ingredients and beverages. This promotion is an initiative of the department’s Farm-to-Chef Program, which connects farmers and producers of Connecticut Grown products with chefs and other culinary professionals.
Over the past three years participants have served over 188,500 Connecticut Grown meals. Diverse Farm-to-Chef menus have been offered at multi-course farm dinners, food-trucks, restaurants, coffee shops, school cafeterias, and ice cream parlors, among other past venues. Featured Connecticut Grown ingredients have included produce, herbs, meats, seafood, dairy, maple, honey, and more.
