School Harvest Dinner

My lovely husband puts in a lot of hours every year to support a wonderful opportunity for his students. The School Harvest dinner takes produce from the farms of the participating schools to create a menu. The school kids help to grow and prepare the produce, as well as cook and serve it on the night. It takes quite a bit of effort to get the right amount of produce ready for the right time and there is a great sense of pride for all involved to see it presented on the plate. Crestwood High is the only public school in the area to participate and 2 previous students have gone on the become chefs since doing the School Harvest. Our meals are always restaurant quality and beautifully presented and served.

Eric is already so busy being an amazing Dad and is always rushing before and after school to gather up all of our boys. How he fits extra things like this into his working day I do not know! He does such a good job at everything he does and I love seeing him having his moment to shine :)


Terrible photo I know but he is up there for the Q&A with teachers bit.


This dessert was so, so good :)


Joe will obviously be a School harvester in future years. He made a double batch of scones this afternoon with very little help form me!
