Farm to Table
At Open Palate, every dish begins with the source. We partner with local farmers and producers who share our commitment to freshness, sustainability, and quality. Together, we bring seasonal ingredients straight from the fields to your table, celebrating the journey of food from farm to fork. Each meal is crafted with care, honoring the people and places that make it possible.
How it works
Partnering with Local Farms
We collaborate with trusted local farmers and food artisans who share our passion for quality and sustainability. Their seasonal harvests inspire each menu, ensuring ingredients are always fresh, flavorful, and responsibly grown.
Designing the Menu
Every event starts with what’s in season. Chef Shantena creates menus that highlight the natural character of local produce, meats, and herbs - balancing comfort, creativity, and nutrition in every course.
Cooking & Serving
From sourcing to plating, we handle every step with care. Whether it’s a private dinner or a large gathering, our Farm to Table experience brings together exceptional ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and genuine connection at your table.
Farm to Table is more than a trend - it’s a philosophy that connects people to their food and the hands that grow it. For Chef Shantena, it’s about slowing down, cooking with intention, and honoring every ingredient that makes its way into your meal.
By supporting local farms, we celebrate community, reduce waste, and ensure that each dish tells a story of care, craft, and connection. When you dine with Open Palate, you’re not just enjoying fresh food - you’re becoming part of something rooted, real, and shared.
Allergies & Dietary
We proudly accommodate guests with allergies or special dietary needs. Every dish is prepared with care and clearly labeled so everyone can enjoy the experience with confidence.
We offer gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options, along with other dietary adjustments by request. No matter your needs, we make sure every guest feels welcome and every plate feels intentional.
