Sojouner Tours'
BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU & LOCAL FOOD HARVEST POTLUCK
The new grape harvest is in! The third Thursday in November will be the first opportunity to taste France’s wines. This year, in the spirit of Sojourner Tours’ commitment to sustainable tourism, you will be celebrating central Texas’ local produce while sipping these young unpretentious wines. Like always, you’ll be getting away and enjoying the bucolic setting of our area’s rolling hills alongside a gurgling creek, listening to “the soulful grooves of classic improvisational Jazz from the 1950s and 1960s” played by the Austin jazz group Third Coast Trio and just relaxing in the convivial atmosphere created by our exceptional local hosts at Red Bird Farm. This year, in the spirit of Red Bird Farm’s Nomadic Table and the French cultural tradition of eating local, seasonal foods: we are going local…
AS ALWAYS, THIS IS A FREE POTLUCK (We provide the entertainment, you provide the food & drinks)...
JUST BRING A BOTTLE OF BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU AND YOUR FAVORITE HOMEMADE DISH TO SHARE MADE WITH INGREDIENTS FROM YOUR GARDEN OR THAT SUPPORTS A LOCAL PRODUCER.
LOCAL FOOD FOCUS: It’s harvest time! We are challenging you to bring a dish made with local products… it could be as simple as using herbs or eggs from your own garden or as elaborate as you would like: Love Pure Luck goat cheese? Great! Johnson’s Backyard Garden? Great! The sky is the limit!
Delightfully mismatched personal place settings at Redbird Farm’s Nomadic Dinner.
SUSTAINABILITY & COUNTRY CHARM: Bring your own place setting & silverware.
LEARN MORE ABOUT BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU: Listen to Austin KO-OP radio’s wine host Mark Rashap as he interviews the local professionals.
