The
dinners are benefits which also raise funds to support their non-profit
partners. This particular dinner was to support the Stanton-Davis Farm
and Homestead. Whit Davis the owner was a delight to meet. He's the
11th generation to farm this land first worked in 1654 until the
present. They grow salt hay and various vegetables including ancestral
Indian corn. Which by the way, was made into the most fabulous corn
bread dessert at the dinner. 
Whit was a wealth of knowledge about
farming and a genuine "fire cracker" of a guy in his red suspenders.
The Homestead is the oldest house in Stonington and is in need of
extensive renovations. Their goal is to eventually make it into a
working agricultural museum.
