St. Brigid's Farm

On the last Sunday in January, about 100 foodies gathered at Unity Landscape’s new digs to sample burgers from four local farms. Bill Schindler grilled sliders and sweet potatoes while Tara Holste and Andy Goddard, the organizers, served spinach and sweet potato salads, cheese, and bread. 16 Mile Beer and Casinelli wine were on hand to add to the festivities. While there were no winners in the tasting, our sliders were distinctly different. Jersey beef is known for its juiciness, tenderness and marbling and the SBF sliders glistened on the platter. Dr. Schindler noted that our burger, which is grass finished, was the reddest in color. The event was sold out. Good to see that the local food movement is alive and well and being helped along with enthusiasm by Tara and Andy.
