Slow Food Fall Heat
Slow Food Baton Rouge’s annual farm-to-table showcase returns to the Burden Museum & Garden's beautiful Orangerie and outside pavilion. The event showcases local food, farms, chefs, brewers, and farmers, to benefit the organization’s signature farm-to-school project, Greauxing Healthy Baton Rouge, which provides hands-on gardening, food, and nutrition educational programming in local schools. Watch celebrity chefs square off to make a square meal with local ingredients. A cocktail competition among local mixologists will keep whistles wet. The showcase runs 4 pm–7 pm at Burden Center, 4560 Essen Lane. $65 early bird; $75 at the door. slowfoodbr.org.
