This event will take place on Saturday, July 20th. We invite you to join us for a Farm Tour at 3:30pm followed by a reception with live music, passed appetizers and wine at 4:15pm. We will then feature a delightful, multi-course meal, utilizing produce grown on our farm in our programs, cooked by accomplished Chef Reylon Agustin, currently Director of Culinary at Post Ranch Inn and Sierra Mar in Big Sur. In addition to the signature farm-to-table meal, the event will feature local beverages, live music, and an engaging program of speakers, including our keynote speaker, Anne Kapuscinski. We are thrilled to welcome Anne to speak on our guiding topic of sustainability, a subject she is an expert in as Director of UCSC's Coastal Sciences & Public Policy Program, as well as serving as Board Chair for the Union of Concerned Scientists. Please read on for more details about Chef Reylon and Anne below.
