Look who’s new in town! Welcome a new bakery, a bustling market, farm-to-table restaurants and more in Bucks County.
4A farm to table expansion: Harvest Seasonal Grill & Wine
Restaurateur Dave Magrogan will open his eighth Harvest Seasonal Grill & Wine Bar at 2865 South Eagle Road at the Village of Newtown Shopping Center in Newtown, PA in late January / early February.
The restaurant will feature all farm-to-table dishes, which as corporate executive chef Josh Short admits, is a little more challenging in the winter (and the restaurant opened during the coldest time of the year!).
“There are still many great locally grown crops available throughout these colder months,” said Short. “It used to be that root vegetables were the only go-to veggies for chefs during the winter, but with many northeastern farmers over the years having turned to greenhouse farming after the first frost, we now have full availability of vegetables such as salad greens, micro herbs, peppers and even tomatoes during the winter.”
Harvest offers a farm-to-table menu featuring organic, local, sustainable and non-GMO ingredients sourced from more than 75 local farms. The restaurants work with The Farm at Doe Run and Linden Dale Farm for cheeses, while sourcing its grains, including farro, cornmeal and flour, from Bucks County’s own Castle Valley Mill.
Keep an eye on their Facebook page for opening information later this month.
