V Resorts - A Brunch with A Conscience


Straight from the Farm to the Fork

India 18 October 2016: This weekend, Delhi woke up to the smells of freshly-cooked Indian cuisine with a twist, coupled with slight tinges of fine wine. The occasion was a unique Farm to Fork brunch at V Resorts Farm Stay Delhi, organized by V Resorts to promote the concept of consuming locally-produced organic food products. The weather was perfect, the location, a judicious distance from crowded Delhi was green, lush, quiet and was reminiscent of a merry meal in the middle of the hills.

With highly-processed food becoming staple, fresh and healthy produce has become scarce, ridding marginalized farmers of their livelihood. V Resorts, staying true to their mission of engaging and nurturing local communities while promoting sustainable development, decided to bring the concept of slow food to the affluent urban of Delhi. The brunch spread, curated by Chef Tarun Sibal of One Fine Meal, consisted of Indian delicacies cooked from fresh vegetables and fruits, few grown on the company's farms (V Resorts has an award-winning fruit orchard with more than 30 varieties of Indian and exotic fruits), and the rest sourced from the neighboring small farmers.

The event, while bringing an experimental dining experience to its guests, demonstrated the viability and judiciousness of the Terra Madre concept embraced by more than 2000 local food communities around the world. Terra Madre, Italian for 'Earth Mother', is a worldwide network of local communities of small-scale food producers, including farmers, fishermen, breeders and food artisans, that focuses on local sourcing and consumption of food in a way that safeguards the environment and communities.

Farm to Fork, true to its name, brought locally-grown gastronomical delights to its numerous guests, who also had a chance to savor fine wine and cocktails with the lush spread, while a brilliant acoustic trio performed mellow old English and Hindi classics to add melody to the afternoon. Besides food and wine enthusiasts, the event was attended by many famous food and travel bloggers and media personnel representing various publications.
