May 16 – The Canadian Chefs’ Congress presents a special afternoon at Providence Farm, consisting of a 6-course food and wine pairing event that will showcase the food of top chefs such as:

• Brad Boisvert (Amuse Bistro)
• Castro Boatang (House of Boatang)
• Robert Clark (C Restaurant)
• Rafael Flores and Berenice Balbuena (Rock Salt Cafe)
• Bill Jones (Deerholme Farm)
• David Lang (Saltspring Harbour House Hotel)
• Cory Pelan (La Piola Restuarant)
• Jonathan Pulker (freelance chef)
• Andrew Springett (Black Rock Resort)
• Brock Windsor (Stone Soup Inn)

Great food, sustainable seafood, local wine, and live music all in the name of building a new wood-burning oven for Providence Farm that would be dedicated to James Barber. The oven will be fired up at the Canadian Chefs’ Congress in September and will be our legacy gift, complementing the farm’s educational and food production activities for years to come.

May 16, 2010 – 1pm to 5pm
$125 per person
