WHAT IS A COMMUNAL FARM DINNER?
It's Farm-to-Table without the "to." You are eating at our farm. We prepare everything from scratch using products from our farm or from farms close to us. All guests arrive at the same time and, after a quick farm tour, everyone sits down at either a long table or several tables. At that point course after course comes flowing in. Ale, your host and the pasta maker, introduces each course explaining the origin of that dish and where the ingredients come from. Food comes in slowly, at a pace that allows you to enjoy each bite. No one is rushing you to clear your plate. You are at our home, so sit back and enjoy.
WHAT DO WE PREPARE?
All of our dishes are traditional Italian recipes but perhaps not the most well-known dishes you may encounter at restaurants in the US, or not what you may know about Italian cuisine. Are you familiar with gran arso? Suppli`? Crozzetti? Strozzapreti? Porchetta? Risotto alla milanese? About nettle pasta? You can find that and more ... much more. We rarely repeat recipes. Our vegetarian guests love us because we do not cut corners, we go all out to make sure their alternative dish is as exciting as any meat course! We can accommodate clients that follow a LOW gluten diet but we are not set up to satisfy guests that follow a NO gluten or vegan diet.
WHEN?
We offer our communal dinners once a month. We have these events to showcase our products and to share our traditions with you. This is a great opportunity for us to connect you with our land and we bask in the energy that each group brings to the farm! Check upcoming dates here. Choose a lunch ($39/person) if you prefer a mid day event that allows you to take it easy with your drive back home (5 course meal). Select a dinner, $75/person, if you want a fancier evening meal where each detail is cared for, from the presentation on the plate to the complexity and the uniqueness of the recipes (8 course meal).

Farm Lunches - Pranzi |

Once a month we open our farm house to a group of 30 people for a lovely evening full of food, laughter, and friendship, shared and developed around long farm tables. We have now hosted hundreds of people passionate about food, agriculture, and humanely raised animals. We serve you a 6+ course dinner using Agricola products in addition to produce from local farms as well as products foraged straight from our land. All recipes follow the authentic italian farming tradition.
You must purchase a "membership" to join us. The cost is $75 and you receive a dinner at the farm and 10% off any purchased meat on the day of the dinner. This is a BYOB event. Visit our Dinner Club page for more information or our store for tickets. |
We offer a monthly brunch on the farm, serving up to 40 guests. This authentic Italian meal focuses on simple food, prepared with our own farm fresh ingredients. Enjoy a relaxing Sunday afternoon and a multi-course meal, served family style on long tables in our 1850s farmhouse. Take this opportunity to meet new friends and take a tour of our farm.
Tickets are $39 each, this includes lunch and a tour of our farm. This is a BYOB event. Visit our Pranzi page for more information and menu samples or online store for tickets. |

Private Events
We currently do not host food-related events at Agricola Farm
. The events are hosted in our 1850s victorian/georgian farm house with lots of character. Animals quarters are not open to guests of the private events unless you include a guided tour. The farm house is ideal for birthday parties, rehearsal dinners, girls nights out etc. And of course you can always add a special class (wool spinning, soap making, s fiber dyeing, etc.), in addition to renting the space. We offer options that vary from $35 to $100 per person.
Please send an email to [email protected] for more details.
