Summer Dining at Gathered Farm
Chef Josh Blumenthal and Gathered Farm + Florals collaborated on this spectacular Long Table Dinner
Late this summer, Chef Josh Blumenthal joined Alexander McNaughton and MacKenzie Alsager to prepare an unforgettable evening of food and wine at Gathered Farm in Powell RIver. The 7 course dinner was a true farm-to-plate experience, and a perfect example of how long table dinners bring old and new friends together to celebrate over food and drink.
