Chefs for Farmers 2017 is coming up November 2nd – 5th and features days and nights of inspired eating and drinking courtesy of some very talented local and national chefs. From popping small bites to getting to know the farms behind our favorite plates, and even learning to build a better Bloody Mary, the weekend’s events are a foodie’s ultimate indulgence.

That’s right, The Pig. The story goes that originally there was a glitter-covered pig that hung from the Meat Fight ceiling like a disco ball. But after the glitter pig disappeared one year, it was replaced with a, shall we say, more life-like pig. Part mascot, part entertainer, today’s Pig has been seen gallivanting with guests, photo-bombing selfies, and (despite what would seem to be conflicting interests) supporting all things meat at recent Meat Fights.
