Farmer Jane dinner at Flea Street Cafe = loads of delicious local food and wine plus tales of women tilling the land, as told by awesome Bay Area activist/author from my hometown of Madison, Wisconsin! Woot!

The Farmer Jane dinner featured the food of Full Belly Farm from the Capay Valley. The killer (and unexpected) match was braised Full Belly lamb with zucchini, eggplant, and mint-cilantro salsa verde paired with 2009 Montemaggiore 3 Divas (the divas being Viognier, Rousanne, and Marsanne) from the Russian River. My husband, who as a general matter cares for neither lamb, cilantro, nor wine of the white stripe, was knocked out. Our bellies and hearts are full.
