  • Laiola and Alemany Farm

    Monday, September 1 | Laiola | 2031 Chestnut Street, San Francisco, CA | All Night | Price Varies

    Laiola and Alemany Farm invite you to join us for a dinner celebrating local food systems. Laiola is San Francisco’s little Spanish darling: A 50-seat taverna with fire colored walls, a long copper bar and high top leather banquettes housed in a Spanish revival building in the Marina. Three star reviews from both The Chronicle and The Examiner prove Laiola’s 100 Spanish label wine list and best of season menu by Chez Panisse alum, Mark Denham, are sure to please.

    Alemany Farm, a 4.5-acre organic fruit and vegetable operation, is San Francisco’s largest food production site. Through our teen apprenticeship program, we give low-income youth meaningful job skills in the budding green economy. Through our participation in the Bayview-Hunters Point farmers market and our free senior citizen food distribution program, we help ensure that all communities — regardless of ethnicity or income — have access to quality organic food. Our weekend community workdays give residents from across San Francisco the chance to learn how to grow their own food.

    Alemany Farm produce including lettuces, basil, beets, carrots, and tomatoes will be served at the dinners. Ten percent of proceeds from the dinners will benefit Alemany Farm.

    Please call Laiola at 415.346.5641 for reservations.
