The accolade is given to the chef who demonstrates sustainable efforts during the 19th Annual Afternoon in the Country. It awards those who go above and beyond by exhibiting Farm-to-Table, Sustainable and Eco-friendly practices.
Afternoon in the Country featured Chefs from Atlanta’s top restaurants paired with the area’s best farms to create a tasting event. Proceeds from the event benefit scholarships for women in the culinary fields, Georgia’s farming community and organizations that feed the hungry.
