Ever want to learn more about animal husbandry and the preparation/curing of bacon & sausage?  Want to learn how to make a great andouille? "Roast Beast" is a fundraiser to benefit Hollygrove Market & Farm and will provide a series of workshops that include building a smokehouse, making bacon and sausage, and baking bread in our outdoor earthen oven (see schedule below). The evening will also include a tasting menu of the day's creations and fresh produce from the farm, live music, Butcher's Wine Bar, NOLA Brewing, and other epicurean treats!

Hollygrove Market & Farm is a not-for-profit urban farm that opened its doors in October 2008 with the mission of bringing the best in fresh local produce to underserved neighborhoods in New Orleans. Today we have an operational urban farm complete with roaming chickens and delicious and unusual varieties of fresh food growing right here in the city!  Your donation of $125.00 for this event is in support of the Hollygrove Market & Farm Mission. Tickets available at HMF and on our website.
