Persimmons & Honey
Saturday, November 12, 2011
10:00 am – 2:00 pm

This holiday season, we’ll be sharing samples from our neighbors - Otow Orchards, Rickey Ranch and Source Tapas

Otow Orchard is renowned for their Japanese art of hoshigaki -- hoshi means dried and gaki is from kaki, the Japanese word for persimmon. Each October, their persimmons are hand-peeled, strung onto a rack, and massaged every 3 to 5 days for several weeks. The result is a moist, sugary, comforting delicacy.

The 165-acres off Cavitt Stallman is home to Rickey Ranch. There are acres of vineyards, fruit trees, pumpkins, gourds, a large garden, and best of all honey bees! They will be bringing their locally produced honey to taste. Bushnell’s will be providing warm, fragrant, melt-in-your-mouth bread.

If this isn’t enough to come out of hibernation, sampling from Source Global Tapas Restaurant will. Their kitchen bustles in the clear light of winter, ovens on, cozy and warm with the aromas of brown butter and dreamy global cuisines. On November 4th, they are bringing local & intriguing flavors of cuisine, served tapas style, to sample.

Free and open to the public, RSVP requested >  promotions@bushnellgardens.com
