We have been so busy here at EVR that I have not had time to focus on an extremely important part of , not only our daily routine, but also the sustenance that gives us all the energy, balance and power to enjoy and maintain such an invigorating and eventful environment.
So to celebrate, not only the beauty of fresh organically grown veggies, herbs, berries and other fruits picked at perfect ripeness right here on our ranch; but also the birthday of the woman who is the brainchild behind all this healthful growth. I will now give you a little taste of all the tantalizing and mouth watering goods that are offered daily here on the ranch.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAN! … and thank you for giving us nourishment, major tummy tickling, flavour, abundance and taste ’scentsation’ – and simply the best gourmet produce to be found in any market anywhere!
Oh … and thank you Chef Kim and Yaloporn, Jaranja, Wanna, Tum and Mihoko for endless amazing meal preparation- and gardening expertise – and we must not forget Claudia, Frank, Numchai and Numchoke (for helping to make everything groooooow) and to all of you for transforming all these Godly creations into works of art on our plates that create and bring beautiful and eclectic music to our palates!
As it has been proven to me over the past week with guests from Egypt, the UK, the Netherlands, Seattle, New York, California, France, Switzerland and local ‘Canadians’ … not to mention the past weeks where guests were from a plethora of nations – people from anywhere in the world appreciate food that is picked fresh, straight from the grounds on which they sit (or run or ride) with the awareness of its source and the people who take part and pride in the harvest. I am very proud and thankful to be spoiled by this humble ‘group o’ gardeners and gurus o’ grub’!
