The first Kitchen of HOPE dinner event took place on June 24th and it was a big success. Chefs from the American Culinary Federation/Baltimore International College were challenged to use produce (picked fresh that day) from The Samaritan Women urban farm and create a culinary treat for our guests.The result was an elegant, colorful, taste-bud-tickling sensation!
