South x Midwest: an evening with Joy Crump
Joy Crump, nationally acclaimed chef heralding from Fredericksburg, VA, will be joining the Granor Kitchen for a one night only event combining her Virginia-rooted cooking with midwestern ingredients grown by Granor and our farming neighbors. Please join us for a multi-course dinner featuring southern-inspired dishes like church greens, slow-cooked meats, Rosie's fried chicken, and hand-mixed pimento cheese all paired with Granor's just-harvested produce driving the menu.
In advance of the dinner, Chef Crump will join Granor Farm's Abra Berens in a free wheeling conversation about what farm to table even means any more, why minimizing food waste is deliciously important, and how they each see their region's food culture represented at home and in the national conversation.

Joy Crump is not only theJames Beard nominated co-founder and executive chef of FOODE + Mercantile in Fredericksburg, VA, she is also a good friend to the farmer and chef community throughout the country. She and Abra Berens met at a Policy Boot Camp in 2016 and quickly bonded over their shared love of bringing people together over a great plate of unfussy food while telling the story of a region through that dish. Joy and her business partner, Beth Black, run a seasonal restaurant and boutique event venue in Virginia and continue to redefine fine dining and what exactly farm to table can mean year round.
In addition, to running these restaurants, Joy contributed recipes to Waste Not: How to Get the Most from your Food, the James Beard Foundation cookbook focused on minimizing food waste through delicious repurposing. Copies of the book are available at the time of purchase and on the night of the event.
The dinner will conclude with a Waste Not book signing with Chef Crump.
