Restaurants around the country are partnering with American Farmland Trust for the inaugural Dine Out for Farms, a national, weeklong event to support a sustainable future for America's farms. During the week of Oct. 10 to 16, participating restaurants will raise funds for AFT's programs that support farms.
In return for supporting Dine Out for Farms, AFT is providing promotional tools to the participating restaurants, along with online and other outreach activities to appeal to consumers who care about farms and food--encouraging consumers to dine out often and make a difference.
The "Founding Circle" restaurants kicking off Dine Out for Farms are:
- The Red Devon Market Bar & Restaurant, Bangall, N.Y.
- Alder Wood Bistro, Sequim, Wash.
- Galletto Ristorante, Modesto, Calif.
- Sheppard Mansion, Hanover, Pa.
- The Market Restaurant, Gloucester, Mass.
