We recommend wearing shoes you can walk confidently in. Fall evenings on the farm are the perfect opportunity to layer—a sun hat and scarf would be perfect accessories for the event—and\, if you are joining us for the barn dance portion of the evening\, some boots would make great footwear for the evening. \nAbout our Chef\nTy Pearce is the chef/owner of Busy Bees Cafe & Catering. Ty fell in love with food at a young age and decided that was the path he wanted to be on. He started his food journey in the family’s restaurant and catering business at age 14\, working his way up over the years from bus boy to executive chef. He also worked in like-minded restaurants like Chez Panisse that focused on the freshest produce and sustainable practices. \nHe went to culinary school in the East Bay Area and then moved abroad to work and study food\, which gave Ty a broader understanding of culture\, ingredients\, menus\, and traditions.
