Our friend Lee who works with us a lot and has her own business doing preserves has a brand new website. Not only that, she was interviewed on the Good Food podcast last week on KCRW. All very cool things and we are really proud of her. Not only that, but her preserves are top notch and you should check out her site.

The Pre-Industrial Pig

By Scott Gordon November 17, 2008

Underground Food Collective is proud to announce this year's first of a set of pig-inspired dinners. On Friday, November 14, we will have only one seating, at 7:30pm (50 usd). We will be hosting the dinners at the Madison at the Goodman Community Center. We expect this first dinner to fill up fast, so contact us soon if you are interested in a seat.
The dinners this year feature four red waddles that were raised at Henry Morren's Farm in Orfordville, Wi. They were raised on pasture and finished under sumac and apple trees. Henry raised two of these last year and we were so happy with the meat that we decided to raise four red waddles this year.

incorrect date pig flyer 08we were planning on hosting this years pig dinner on nov 1st. the pigs are ready, we have some good venue options in madison were finalizing and then we decided to go to paris. that being said i am very excited about where we are in the project and when we do host the dinners ( probably the 8th of nov) they will be great. below is the flyer that we had done for the dinner, its probably unwise to post it with the incorrect date but well just correct you when you call. we will also be helping tory miller with a dinner he is doing on the 18th...? not to mention some ideas of other dinners
