Special Earth Day Menu
Iron Horse Vineyards Chef Christopher Greenwald designed a locavore’s feast for Celebrate Earth Day in Green Valley, California, held at Iron Horse Vineyards on April 20. The menu was inspired by world street food, but interpreted with all local ingredients – either home grown or from farms within a 100 miles radius. The key ingredients for the menu include popcorn from Full Belly Farm in Capay Valley, northwest of Sacramento; the chicken, from Fulton Valley Farms in Santa Rosa, is grilled over Iron Horse grape vines cuttings. Greenwald was especially excited to source drought resistant Tepary Beans, originally grown by Hopi Indians in the Southwest, now being raised at Rancho Gordo in Napa. Naturally, the fish comes from local waters.

Greenwald said his inspiration for world food for Earth day came from his travels. “Our big challenges are global and inclusive of all cultures. I think the best way to remind ourselves of how connected we are is through each other’s native foods.”
