HOST FARMERS: Laura Calvert, Elaine Madansky & Sam Cline | Elawa Farm GUEST CHEF: Katsuji Tanabe, Bittersweet The lush fields of Elawa have become a magnet for the community's appreciation of place, good food, and the history of Illinois prairie farming. Surrounding residents flock to the historic farm to walk the grounds and connect with nature. Its brick manor buildings, green lawns, and groomed hedges may look fancy, but Elawa Farm is a real working place, whose fields produce a plethora of organic goodness and also serve as a unique center for hands-on learning.
