A Taste of The Valley included Haldane's Own Beet Soup!

On Saturday, April 22nd Glynwood Farm hosted A Taste of the Valley: A sampling of local cuisine and wine benefitting the Haldane School Foundation. And Haldane's very own Beet Soup was represented alongside many delicious dishes from top restaurants and caterers in the local Hudson Valley.

Haldane's budding young chefs from Mrs. Quick's 4th grade and Mrs. Battersby's 5th grade classes volunteered in the afternoon to make the Beet Soup they made with the CIA chefs in their Chef in the Classroom day in February. Glynwood's culinary director, Jason Wood supervised the four students as they chopped onions, grated beets and followed a recipe that would serve over 150 sample portions of the soup for all to taste that evening. The beets and the onions came from the Cold Spring Farmers' Market vendor, Madura Farms. The heavy cream came from Hudson Valley Fresh.

Truly A Taste of the Valley! 

If you enjoyed the soup at Glynwood and would like to try it yourself, here's the recipe. 

Enjoy!
