Wisconsin Foodie

A Love Letter to Summer (9x13)

: 11, 2019

In this episode of Wisconsin Foodie, we venture out to Viroqua, Wisconsin for a visit with Mat and Cate Eddy of Ridgeland Harvest. They started farming with just half-acre, but quickly grew their business through Community Supported Agriculture and the help of local chefs. James Beard nominated Chef Luke Zahm helps Mat and Cate pick produce for a farm dinner he’s hosting later that evening. Then, back at his restaurant, Luke explains all the teamwork that goes into pulling off a multi-course farm dinner. Things start hopping when Hillsboro Brewing arrives at Ridgeland Harvest and the guests start pouring in. Luke fires up the grills and whisks us through a feast that captures both the taste of summer and the important relationship between farmers and Chefs.
