NEPA Restaurants Offer Locally-Sourced, Farm-To-Table Dining
There’s something to be said about connecting with your food. From the farmers market to the corner bakery to the neighborhood craft brewery, NEPA loves a local connection. Luckily, in our little corner of PA, there is no shortage of producers and artisans cranking out fresh, farm-grown veggies, locally-raised meats, oven-fresh breads and so much more. Now, if only we were all professionally-trained gourmet chefs…
That’s where NEPA’s local, sustainable, farm-to-table restaurants enter the picture. Throughout the region, local restaurants are connecting with local produce farms, dairies, cattle farmers, hatcheries and skilled artisans to bolster their menus. It’s a movement aimed at creating an ethical connection between restaurants, consumers, producers and ingredients. And not only does farm-to-table dining result in delicious, fresh plates, it’s a responsible method of sustaining and protecting the idea of local food.
Here’s the kicker, all you really have to do is show up and eat. We’ve gathered a short list of some of the leaders in NEPA’s farm-to-table dining scene. Check em’ out!
