Step into a serene evening at 15th Street Farm, where the spirit of France meets the soul of St. Pete. Our Community Dinner Series continues with A Taste of France, a Provencal-inspired meal lovingly prepared by our very own Chef Zachary Crossman. This unforgettable experience celebrates local ingredients, community gathering, and the time-honored tradition of sharing a meal together.
Chef Zachary brings his deep culinary knowledge and passion for global flavors to the farm’s wood-fired kitchen. With experience that spans Thai temples to modern Italian kitchens, Chef Zachary now applies his skills to create sustainable, seasonal dishes right here in our half-acre garden oasis.
The evening will begin with a guided stroll through the farm, where guests can learn about our organic practices and sample fresh-picked produce. From there, guests will gather at long communal tables nestled alongside our wood-fired brick oven—designed for warmth, conversation, and togetherness.
The menu will include:
Salad Course:
Farm greens salad
Pâté de campagne with wild mushrooms
Main Course:
Braised lamb shoulder with fresh herbs and garlic
Tomatoes Provençales
Mediterranean risotto with Swiss chard and garden vegetables
Dessert:
GateauOchocolat with crème Chantilly and edible flowers
Petits Fours & Tea Service:
Chai masala cookies
Lemongrass & ginger tea
Hibiscus and orange blossom water

As with all of our events, this dinner is more than a culinary experience—it’s an extension of our mission. 15th Street Farm is a nonprofit dedicated to reconnecting people with their food, their health, and one another through hands-on education, regenerative agriculture, and community-based experiences.
Your participation helps us grow this mission, support outreach programs, and provide fresh, nutrient-dense food to our neighbors. Whether you're a longtime supporter or discovering us for the first time, we welcome you to the table.
