Farm to Table Residency: Inspiration from Georgia Gilmore
$300.00

Students will explore how Georgia Gilmore’s influential role in the Montgomery bus boycott can inspire the creation of a farm-to-table restaurant today. This immersive experience involves delving into the various roles required to successfully establish a restaurant, allowing students to transform their classroom into a vibrant restaurant environment they create and curate. Throughout the process, students will be able to research family traditions and recipes, identify local and seasonal produce, and calculate meal costs for the menu. As the launch day for the restaurant approaches, students will consider how actors prepare for opening night and the role an invited audience showing can ensure they are ready for the big day.
