Join us in supporting local food and farm products at our first Farm-to-Table Fundraiser, hosted on-site at the Burning Barrel farm and restaurant in Lecompton, Kansas - just a short drive north of Lawrence.
The mission of the Lawrence Farmers' Market is to provide everyone in the Lawrence, KS area, with locally grown foods and farm products. LFM became a non-profit organization in 2012 to help improve access to local, healthy, affordable food and increase education and support of Lawrence-area agriculture. We at the market believe that small, local farms are essential to the local economy and are committed to making economic and educational connections between Lawrence-area residents and local farmers.
Burning Barrel's Chef Brian Strecker has studied cooking methods from all over the world. In focusing on meat fabrication, fermentation, fresh vegetable preparations, and live-fire cooking, he recognized a vein that runs through every culture's culinary traditions: fresh is best. That is why every ingredient on his plates is sourced from his own farm or from one of the hard-working farmers down at the Lawrence Farmers' Market.
This ticket provides you a Hyperlocal 3-course meal with drink pairings in the beautiful setting of Burning Barrel, accompanied by live music from Megafauna and a short presentation about the Lawrence Farmers' Market.
Thank you for your support of small family farms and local food.
