History is Served: Arkansas Foodways Dinner Series
If Reasons Were as Plenty as Blackberries Arkansas Fruits & Berries Jonathan Arrington & Jack Sundell, The Root Café
Thursday, June 6, 6:30 pm • $60 ($45 for museum members)
Arkansas fruits and berries take center stage in the second of our 2019 History is Served dinner series. Jonathan Arrington and Jack Sundell of The Root Café, working with local farmers, will present a meal that features a different Arkansas fruit each course.
Whether it’s a savory twist on berries or an unexpected pairing with a main course protein, each course, inspired by Arkansas’s rich heritage in fruit
production, will surprise and delight. You’ll go home with a full mind as well, hearing of folk tales with lines like, “[blackberry] briars close out
and take more farms in Arkansaw than mortgages ever did in Kansas,” and learning why we called this dinner, “if reasons were as plenty as blackberries.”
Tickets available online only, starting at 9 am, May 13.
