Celebrating Culinary Excellence

Farmer Lee Jones' Anniversary Dinner at Charlie Trotter’s restaurant was an evening combining culinary artistry, memorable moments, and a tribute to the partnership between farmers and chefs. The intimate ambiance of Charlie Trotter’s restaurant was filled with soft lighting, elegant decor, setting the tone for an evening of elegance and warmth.

Reflecting Farmer Lee’s love of nature, the tables were thoughtfully arranged, each decorated with centerpieces of fresh edible flowers.

The restaurant staff and renowned chefs show cased the finest produce from Farmer Lee’s farm, highlighted with a menu filled with innovation. This was a true testament to the collaboration between the Farmer and the legendary Chef Charlie Trotter. Each course told a story of the seasons, the land, and the dedication to quality of celebrating nature's bounty. Every dish was paired with carefully selected wines or nonalcoholic drinks, enhancing the flavors and the overall dining experience. This was a heartfelt celebration clearly illustrating the profound impact Farmer Lee has had on both the culinary and agricultural worlds.

About Gloria

Picture
As a learning specialist, I used brain based techniques, neuro-linguistic strategies, and administered testing/screening for preschool through 8th grade. I worked with all grade levels and have experience as a reading/writing teacher, diagnostic/prescriptive testing coordinator, and assisted parents as a learning consultant.

I have a double MA degree in Reading/Special Education/Learning Disabilities, multi-certifications/licenses in four states, administration/supervision certifications, and published educational articles for school districts and magazines. I presented workshops for teachers and wrote activities for a preschool prevention grant program. My experience also includes teaching neuro-linguistic reading techniques at the college level.

I have a chapter in the recently published book No Mistakes How You Can Change Adversity into Abundance.



I also was selected as the grand prize winner to represent Ford City Mall in Chicago, and I was one of the top twenty speaker/writers in the 2012 Next Greatest Speaker and Authors’ Competition.

In the field of nutrition and creative food preparation, I have over 300 hundred winning recipes that were selected by various companies and organizations in their food competitions. My recipes are printed in many company and industry publications. Also, I have appeared on television, radio programs, and have been featured in magazines, newspapers, and other publications
