The South Jersey Independent Restaurant Association -- the so-called "SJ Hot Chefs" -- will soon launch its second Farm to Fork Week, a series of $35 four-course dinners based on local ingredients. Dates are Sunday 7/27-Friday 8/1.
It's part of the Farm to Fork Campaign, an homage to the Jersey farmer.
Organizers say last year's Farm to Fork Week gave local farmers over $100,000 in business during the week as participating restaurants hosted more than 50,000 diners. This year, 95 farms will team with 35 restaurants.
See the list of restaurants here. (As restaurant association websites go, SJ Hot Chefs' is the best around; not only is it clear and easy to navigate, but there's a feature that allows restaurant workers to post their resumes to all the restaurants in the group.)
