Real Farm at Waikii Ranch in Waimea will host a farm-to-table benefit for Kahilu Theatre and PA‘I Foundation on June 1, featuring fresh meats, dairy products and produce from the farm just footsteps away from the table.
Honolulu chef Mark Noguchi, formerly of Kona Village, will be preparing the afternoon meal at Real Farm, home of Kahilu Theatre director Tim Bostock and organic farmer Melanie Holt and family. Holt will oversee provisions for the meal.
Farm-raised lamb, turkey and pork are on the menu, and freshly harvested vegetables include artichokes, asparagus, fennel, tomatoes, fava beans, mange-tout peas, cabbages, brussel sprouts, kale, sweet potato, carrot, lettuce, celery, Swiss chard, cucumber and eggplant.
Daughter Jasmine “Jazzy” Bostock will display cheeses made from fresh milk provided by Buttercup, the Jersey cow.
