MCFB VIP Lunch at Red Hill Gun Club

Every October Marin County Farm Bureau holds its annual V.I.P. luncheon and this year, it was once again held at Red Hill Gun Club.  The luncheon is to bring together Marin County's public officials with our Marin County farmers and ranchers, who work together throughout the year on various county and state issues.  One of the current issues being discussed is the Local Coastal Plan.

A few of M.C. Farm Bureau board members; Gerry Corda, John Taylor and Martin Pozzi stock up the bar with beer, wine and Clover Stornetta milk, of course.

A VIP Lunch and Potatoes for 70

If you follow me on Facebook, many of you noticed I was a bit stressed over roasting baby potatoes for 70 last week for Marin County Farm Bureau's V.I.P. Luncheon.  Sweatin' bullets actually.  But when friends and farmers come together, there's all sorts of help.....I should know this by now.

The V.I.P. lunch was held at the Pomi Ranch, a.k.a. Deer Camp.  My first job of the day was to get these potatoes going.  After board member, Nicola, washed all 40 pounds of them, Mark Pomi, had a plan for success; boil them first to soften them up. After that was completed, he and neighbor, Alan Cooper halved them as I layered them all in a gigantic roasting pan with all the goodies. We used olive oil, kosher salt, garlic, pepper and fresh rosemary sprigs from my garden.  Pop them in the oven for a while and that was it!
