Complete with recycled props from the Flower Show for an “industrial-chic” setting, seasonal dishes, gardening teams and the opportunity to chat with chefs, PHeaSt is perfect for foodies or locavores. Thrown by Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, the decor, food and drinks satisfy the senses.

PHeaSt’s 2014 highlighted partners include:

  • Bank & Bourbon
  • Heritage

  • Vetri Foundation
  • Supper
  • Capital Wine & Spirits
  • Yards
  • La Colombe

  • Southwark Queen Village Community Garden
  • PHS City Harvest/PPS

Taste your way around the affair to vote for the People’s Choice Award, and a few dishes will be voted “Best in PHeaSt”.
