In Your Backyard Farm-to-Table Benefit Picnic Dinner

Join some of the best chefs and artisanal food producers in Monterey County for a picnic like no other: think elegant farm-to-table benefit dinner, but much more informal, with an opportunity to stroll and eat or perch on blankets at the stunning, historic Holman Ranch in Carmel Valley.

The evening will inlcude Holman's delicious, award-winning estate wines, live music and food from an array of terrific local chefs, all make with fresh, local ingredients. 

Chefs will inlcude La Balena's Brad Briske, Sierra Mar's John Cox, Porter's in the Forest's Johnny De Vivo, Edgars' Ken MacDonald, Aubergine's Ron Mendoza and Wills Fargo Steakhouse + Bar's Jerome Viel. Purveyors will include Tassajara Natural Meats and Monterey Abalone Co. 

Sponsored by Edible Monterey Bay magazine, the event is the finale of an exciting series of wine and food tastings and cooking demos at Holman's Carmel Valley tasting room. 

A portion of the evening's proceeds will go to the following food-related local nonprofits: MEarth, Seafood Watch, Nancy's Project, Everyone's Harvest, Food Bank for Monterey County and Ag Against Hunger. 

Please bring your own blanket and we'll take care of the rest!
