Dorothy & John Priske, of Fountain Prairie Farm, will speak at the May meeting of the Culinary History Enthusiasts of Wisconsin (CHEW). In addition to raising registered Highland cattle to produce wonderful grass fed beef, featured at some of the area’s finest restaurants and available directly from the Priskes at the Dane County Farmers Market, their farm also includes an 1899 Victorian Inn and acres of restored tallgrass prairie and marsh. Come hear how they made the transition from a conventional beef operation to a holistic and sustainable farm, creating “an island of grass in a sea of corn”.
