A five-course dinner that tells a story. That’s the goal behind Origin, a new dinner series hosted at the 4Roots Farm this fall. The farm-to-table-inspired menus will be overseen by 4Roots Senior Culinary Director Chef Hari Pulapaka and guest chefs, featuring ingredients that come from the farm and other local sources.
