GrowingGreat will be hosting a Farm to Table Benefit on July 12th at the beautiful estate of Cindy and David Hoag in Manhattan Beach. We have stellar chefs, wonderful wines, and a beautiful evening planned for this event. In the Hoag’s magnificent garden under the stars, Tammy Lipps will prepare a seasonal, farm-fresh family style dinner paired with outstanding wines. Other celebrity chef demonstrations will include appetizers made in the Hoag’s amazing in-door/out-door living kitchen and outdoor pizza oven, a VIP wine and appetizer pairing in the Hoag’s vineyard with a special guest chef, and a delectable display of healthy and luscious desserts. We are extremely proud of our chef lineup this year!
