Richmond Food Security Society hosts its Fall Fundraiser on Saturday.
The evening at Britiannia Heritage Shipyard will feature a locally-sourced appetizer buffet showcasing the season’s harvest, served at one of the last surviving bunkhouses in the Pacific Northwest.
Harold Steves – family farmer, Richmond city councillor and one of the founding fathers of BC’s Agricultural Land Reserve – will be the featured speaker.
Participants will learn about Richmond’s food history at one of the city’s most unique heritage sites. Tickets are $45 and include an appetizer buffet and a raffle for various valuable prizes. For more visit richmondfoodsecurity.org.
The appetizers will be prepared by award winning chef Daniela Iaci.
The appetizer list includes pear and gorgonzola crostini, wild mushroom and thyme crostini; curried shrimp tartlets; house smoked wild sockeye salmon with citrus creme fraiche, to name just a few.
