POSTOAK announces Farm to Table Wine Dinner as part of Summer Shindigs at the Lodge

2017 POSTOAK Wine & Jazz Festival.

OSAGE CO., OKLAHOMA, 6/25/2020 – What do musicians, ranchers, farmers and health instructors all have in common?  A place to meet this summer and provide a bit of relaxation, good food and entertainment to the good people of Tulsa and “Green Country”. 

POSTOAK Lodge Chef Damien Jacob is working with Grassroots Ranch owners Daniel & Maria Rose, and Bob Wickizer of Pecan Creek Winery to offer POSTOAK Lodge’s first Farm to Table Wine Dinner, July 11, 6:30 p.m. The four-course meal with wine pairings is limited to 30 guests and will be served in the Lodge’s most spacious banquet room to ensure physical spacing. Chef Damien has curated a Prime Pork Chop dinner from Grassroots Ranch. It will be served with roasted red pepper polenta, sweet corn, black-eyed pea and green bean succotash. Diners will start with a small bite lamb “gyro’, enjoy a grilled pear salad and wrap up with smoked honey buttermilk ice cream atop berries and sweet oat crumble. 

Chef Damien said “we are excited to offer this true farm to table meal. In addition to what Grassroots Ranch is providing we are also sourcing the dinner from Abundant Microgreens, Crooked Shed Homestead, Farrell Family Bread, Gibson Gardens, Lomah Dairy, Swan Bros. Dairy, Inc. and Wagon Creek Creamery. The honey from Okie Bee Farms is harvested here on our property. Pecan Creek Winery is passionate about making great wines from locally-source grapes, thus, the whole menu will be Oklahoma sourced.”

The July 11 Farm to Table Wine dinner is $65 per person, plus gratuity and taxes. Reservations are required and can be purchased through EventBrite at  https://bit.ly/3et55fn or by calling POSTOAK at 918-425-2112.

The dinner is part of POSTOAK’s “Summer Shindigs at the Lodge”. Trisha Kerkstra, general manager of POSTOAK, said “Like others in the hospitality industry, we’ve been hard hit by the pandemic, and learned how it has also affected musicians, farmers and even yoga instructors. There is no better way to support one another than by offering our property – known for its wide-open spaces- as a venue to carefully create some opportunities for entertainment and relaxation.”
