18 Reasons
Dinner Conversation: Oak Hill Farm
Wednesday, April 25, 7-9PM, Ticketed
$25 member price; $35 general admission
Ticket prices includes meal, wine pairing & tip.

Join 18 Reasons and young farmers David and Stacey from Oak Hill Farm for the latest in our Dinner Conversation Series. We will sit down with farmers from Oak Hill to talk about farming lifestyle, especially why some young people (like them) are ditching the conventional career route and choosing farming as an alternative.

David's tentatively titled his talk "Why I Traded my 9 to 5 for a 5 to 9" and will be talking about leaving his advanced degree, career-path, urban life for something more meaningful to him. Stacey will talk about the ins and outs, the ups and downs of farming -- and what it means for them as a young couple to have made this choice. They will also talk about farming practices, the history of the farm and what they grow. All over wine and a vegetarian meal highlighting their beautiful produce.
