Proctors Hosting Farm to Table Dinner

The Business Review reported today that Proctors will be hosting a Farm to Table dinner on January 6, with the Schenectady Greenmarket co-hosting, and Ellis Medicine sponsoring.

Chefs from Mexican Radio, Mazzone Hospitality, Cafe NOLA, and Tara Kitchen will use locally-sourced ingredients to create the menu. The prepared food will be served along one long table down the length of Proctors Arcade. That will certainly be a sight to see!
