Welcome Dinner*
Wednesday, October 3 6:30PM - 9:00PM
Johnson's Backyard Garden Pecan Grove
Summary
This year's SXSW Eco Welcome Dinner, with support from Local Orbit, will take place in the old pecan tree grove at Johnson's Backyard Garden in East Austin, featuring organic fare grown right there on the farm. The meal will be catered by Austin's own Sonya Coté, the brains behind Hillside Farmacy, and a real leader in Austin's local food movement and sustainable food practices.
One of the other local talents that will have a presence is sake from Texas Sake Company. This beautiful meal will be topped off with organic wine from Sonoma County graciously provided by Medlock Ames, and delicious beer will be provided by Lagunitas.
Seating is limited, so save your seat now by purchasing your ticket for $80 when you buy your registration. The bus leaves from the AT&T Conference Center at 6:30pm.
