Farm to Stage Brought Music to our Tastebuds​

As part of Jack's All At Once campaign, the tour teamed up with renowned chefs across America, alongside local farmers and purveyors, to highlight the local food movement with a series of farm to stage events for some lucky radio winners. The first of the farm to stage events on the west coast was at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado with KBCO. Chef Kyle Mendenhall of The Kitchen restaurant started things off right with a family style feast sourced from local farms and ranches. You can listen to an interview with Chef Kyle Mendenhall and Jack here. KINK winners in Bend, Oregon, sat down for dinner with Chef Daniel Mondok who has focused his recent career on the farm to table movement. In Los Angeles KCRW listeners were treated to a summer picnic at the beautiful Greek Theatre inspired by local foods, prepared by Chef Ari Taymor of ALMA who first met Jack and his wife at the James Beard Foundation Chef Boot Camp. The final farm to stage event in San Diego, CA was prepared for KPRI listeners by Chef Jason Maitland from Indigo Grill. You can support the local food movement by shopping at your local farmers markets and visiting farm to table restaurants.
