Blackwood is a non-profit, 33-acre teaching farm with a variety of crops, laying hens and bees. Their goal is to model how regenerative agriculture practices can positively impact the planet and improve our food system in the process. Blackwood serves the community through summer camps and field trips to empower local youth, plus a thriving CSA program that serves both Houston and Austin. We will honor that important work with a meal from guest chef Justin Yu and his superstar team at Houston’s Hotel Lucine, Squable, Theodore Rex and Better Luck Tomorrow. His three restaurants are some of Houston’s very best — known for elevated European-American menus with creative twists, locally sourced ingredients and award-winning cocktails. Over the years, they’ve won a long list of accolades from Bon Appetit, Food & Wine and James Beard. Big talent in the field kitchen at this supremely inspiring place.
