MENU | May Gathering at Matchstic

May 2013 Homespun ATLFarmers Markets are in full swing by May, and we took full advantage by traveling around Atlanta to source the meal. We shared with our guests where the fresh produce came from and challenged everyone to shop local and taste the difference.  We desire authenticity in life through relationships, work and service.  The same standard can, and should, be set for our food. Here's a look of the evening focusing on the meal. For the full recap, please visit Pilgrim Creative. Enjoy!

Locally Sourced: Woodland Gardens, Crystal Organics, Skylight Farm, Tucker Farms, Pearson Farm, Watsonia Farm, Fry Farm, The Capra Gia Cheese Company

November Gathering - Harvest Dinner

Last month we were blessed with a memorable night full of laughter, thanksgiving, and of course, a seasonal meal. You may have already seen the amazing Homespun ATL video captured by Los Filmmakers, if not check it out. They documented the process of preparing for the evening.

We gathered with a new group of friends and strangers to share a harvest meal at the industrial studio of Matchstic in Grant Park.  Jason served up course after course of "autumn delight", the arrangements of Juli Vaughn lit up the room, Mao's inspiring freehand chalk art inspired the guests... there is something to be said (and experienced) when we get to create from the overflow of our heart...it's raw, organic and imperfect, yet beautiful. Here's a look at the evening through the eye of Whitney Huynh. We hope to see you at the table soon!
