Arrows Kitchen Private Lunch

These events will be held at our farm, in a covered barn (held rain or shine), with a different chef and experience every dinner. We will embrace our surroundings while also getting an education in sustainability and stewardship. Our hope is that you will leave feeling a greater understanding of the labor of love behind your meal and rethink seasonal ingredients. At Arrows Farm, our goal is to bring families back to the table, starting from the earth to your plate. Dinners are held beginning in Fall and will continue as chefs' schedule and Autumn nights allow.

Menus will be prepared by the Chef and created using seasonal ingredients. With this in mind, each event will be different and always changing. Each chef will bring a different culinary background and flair to their dishes to highlight our local ingredients. Expect to see unique ideas, fresh plates, and other local farms and businesses.

Along with an exquisite meal, expect an informal mingling with others as your walk along the garden paths of fresh herbs, seasonal vegetables, and our greenhouses. We will then head to our long table where you can expect a multi-course meal prepared by a chef in our open kitchen (feet away from our table). At the end of the night, enjoy delightful conversation with guests as the sun sets.

Our first lunch will be featuring Chef Inger Hoovestol Smith. Inger Hoovestol Smith is a talented chef, consultant and culinary instructor with over 30 years experience in the food industry. 

Originally from Houston, Texas, Inger studied and worked at the popular cooking school Le Panier for many years, where she also taught cooking classes and had the privilege of working alongside such exceptional chefs as Guliano Bugiali, Marcella Hazan, Nick Malgieri and Joanne Weir. 

Over the years Inger has had the unique opportunity to work in the professional sports, music and film industries. She spent three years as a Chef Consultant for the Atlanta Falcons working specifically with Matt Ryan and Justin Blalock; Inger was private chef on tour for PGA golfer Dustin Johnson from 2011 through 2019, and worked with other notable clients such as Jennifer Anniston, Mary Lou Retton, Mrs. Barbara Bush and The Rolling Stones, among others. 

Chef Smith’s passion is developing recipes and cooking with ingredients that are nutritionally sound and of the highest quality. She grows her own food, works with local farmers, and enjoys making meals for clients who desire to stay well and eat food that is organically grown and picked fresh.  Personally, Inger loves working on the farm, growing and cooking with unique vegetables and hanging out with family and friends.
