Celebrate Driftless Wisconsin Grown’s fourth annual harvest dinner on Saturday, Sept. 12 at Gatherings on the Ridge, a newly-renovated rustic barn just north of Eastman on Highway 27.

Talented chef, Mark Oppermann, of Sharing Spaces Kitchen, will cater this local foods event. Appetizers include cheese and vegetable kabobs, endive lettuce cups with mushrooms and wild rice, fall harvest salsa, and Prairie Earth Organic baked tortilla chips. An apple harvest salad features spinach, quinoa, apples, pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, and pecans. A garam masala pumpkin soup with crispy chorizo and glazed apples will be served as well. The delicious entree includes a pork loin roast with cranberry and walnut stuffing and a roasted butternut squash ravioli with hazelnut cream sauce. A dessert of cheesecake stuffed baked apples will top off the delicious meal.

Live music by the talented local band Sixteen Strings and a Stick will be played throughout the evening, featuring Crisse Reynolds on the violin and Brad Johnson and Bill Rice on the guitars. Locally-brewed beer from Potosi Brewery and wine from Sugar Creek Winery and Wollersheim Winery will be sold throughout the evening.

A fun local meat/produce raffle will take place as well as a live auction by the Kramer Auction house, auctioning off priceless items such as guided kayak tours, Mississippi cruise trips and more.

The event begins at 5:30 p.m. Saturday.
