On this evening at Crown Hill Farm, we invite you to a table where food is more than a meal — it’s a connection to the land, the ancestors, and the stories that shape us.

Chef Lorinda John, a descendant of the Seneca Nation from the Cattaraugus Territory, brings her deep-rooted passion for Indigenous cuisine to the farm. From feeding her community through her catering business to serving meals with World Central Kitchen in times of crisis, Lorinda’s cooking is an act of love, resilience, and remembrance.

For this dinner, she offers a meal that honors the earth, using ingredients that hold stories as old as the land itself. Each course is a bridge — a taste of Haudenosaunee culture that invites you to listen, savor, and remember.

About the Farm-to-Table Experience at Crown Hill Farm

Each farm-to-table dinner at Crown Hill Farm is more than a meal — it’s a journey through the land and its seasons. You’ll begin with a guided tour of the farm, meeting the animals, walking through the gardens, and hearing the stories behind the ingredients that will soon be on your plate.

Then, sit at our signature long table, set with vintage dishware and seasonal blooms, as each course is introduced by the chef, offering a rare, intimate connection to the food and the person who crafted it. With live music, thoughtfully paired wines, and the beauty of the farm as your backdrop, this is an evening to savor, celebrate, and connect.

As you gather for dinner, Chef Lorinda will guide you through each dish, sharing the stories, teachings, and flavors that have nourished her people for generations.

This is more than a meal. It’s an evening to sit in gratitude, to taste the spirit of the land
