Conference Meals, Featuring Regional Foods!
We
gather sustainably, organically, and regionally raised
foods for the conference meals from over 50 PASA members
and friends. If you are interested in contributing food
to these meals, please contact
lauren@pasafarming.org.
Thursday and Friday evening will include a Social Hour
Reception for all registrants and as a special treat to
all those joining us Thursday, we are hosting a Cheese
Tasting to showcase remarkable cheesemakers in the house
that day — savor extraordinary local cheeses and be
ready to buy a piece or two to take home with you.
During Friday’s Sustianable Socializing join us for our
first ever PASA singles mixer! Come find that special
someone
over snacks and drinks.
We
continue to offer our specially prepared meals
throughout our conference. Using the locally raised and
produced foods we bring in, Chef Stout of the Penn
Stater will yet again wow you with his creations!
Special thanks goes out to the faculty and students of
the Pennsylvania College of Technology's School of
Hospitality, who provide the much needed labor for our
meals annually.
We
are repeating our popular Thursday Evening Winter Picnic
Buffet, which will be followed by musical entertainment!
For Friday’s lunch, we’ll pack a Brown Bag Lunch full of
tasty and healthy fare. You will have several options
from which to choose, as well as a selection of
beverages.
That evening, our annual Awards Banquet Dinner will
feature the Leadership Awards. You may choose between
our meat, vegetarian, and vegan option. We also offer a
special kids meal.
On
Saturday we are offering our special PASA Luncheon.
Again, you have the options of meat, vegetarian, vegan,
or kids meal.
We
are proud of the tremendous food brought together for
Farming for the Future, and hope you plan on attending
these special healthy meals. Check the appropriate boxes
on the registration form. Meals are available only to
conference attendees. Please register early, as they
will sell out.
Farmers Market Café
We are committed to
local food, and conference attendees will see a return
of the Farmers Market Café this year. The Café provides
us with a great selection of alternative quick-grab
snacks and light meals, and gives people another way to
connect to their farmers and food. The healthy variety
offered in the Café is prepared by some of the region’s
foremost purveyors of local food. Use free time in
between workshops by grabbing and going with something
from the Farmers Market Café!
Please note: Lunch
is included in the day-package for our Pre-Conference
registrants, and Continental Breakfast is provided each
morning to all
registered attendees.
