“So starting this July, over five months Leiss will be put all his knowledge and connections to use in a series of four exclusive farm-to-table dinners held in the pasture at Hover Farms. Leiss fell in love with the place when interviewing proprietor James Himelwright for his blog last year. Himelwright’s Red Devon cattle are grass fed, and his chickens are pasture raised, falling in line with Leiss’s sustainable sensibilities. Leiss will be dry aging Hover Farms beef for 90 days in preparation for the first dinner.”
