By August 24, 2024Connecticut, Top News

Brescome Barton, in collaboration with DORO Restaurant Group, hosted a Bastille Day celebration and farm dinner at Sub-Edge Farm in Farmington on July 14. Guests enjoyed tastes of French wine, beer and spirits, with spritz bars featuring Lillet and Grey Goose Essences, a cocktail bar with selections from Rémy Cointreau and Belle de Brillet, and wines including Château Pech-Latt Corbieres, Cave de Lugny Unoaked Chardonnay, Lucien Albrecht Cremant d’Alsace Brut and Whispering Angel The Beach Rosé. The DORO Restaurant Group team created fresh French-themed cuisine using produce from Sub-Edge Farm to pair with beverage choices, which guests enjoyed in tents set amid the farm’s grounds. The farm grows 10 acres of sustainable and organically farmed vegetables, fruits, flowers, and culinary herbs and humanely raises heritage breed pigs, pasture-raised broilers, laying hens and 100% grass-fed cows. It also takes part in a 100-share Community Supported Agriculture program.
