Schnepf Farms‘ final orchard dinner of the season takes place Saturday, May 10. Fewer than 40 tickets remain for the 100-person dinner, which will be prepared by chef Eddie Matney, who’s about to open his new restaurant, Eddie’s House, in Scottsdale.
The four-times-a-year event, which always has sold out, takes place in the peach orchard of Mark and Carrie Schnepf’s Queen Creek farm (pictured above) and has featured a who’s who of Valley chefs, such as Robert McGrath, Aaron May, Vincent Guerithault and Beau MacMillan.
The dinner starts at 6:30 p.m., and the price is $70 per person, which includes food, wine, tax and gratuity. (Next fall, the price will go up to $90). Dress is “farm casual,” so think jeans or linen shorts. Info: (480) 987-3100.
