Sample Winter 2011/12
the osteria pane e salute gardens
Several years ago, we formally developed our own restaurant gardens at our property in the country. While we are still working with our local farm partners, we have taken this opportunity to grow specific Italian varieties of lettuces, vegetables, and herbs for our menu. We have also built a winter garden as well so that we may offer our own fresh greens and root vegetables through the winter season.
