AN UNFORGETTABLE CHEF’S TABLE
Enjoy a Chef's Table private meal with loved ones in the heart our mission field — our home.
A UNIQUE PRIVATE EVENT WHERE FOOD MEETS STORY
Fun fact — John Clifford, President and Pastor of Greenhouse Project, has led a 20-year culinary career at some of Philly’s best restaurants specializing in classical French techniques with imaginative style and flavor profiles.
John has established local programs that train up men in recovery with cooking and leadership skills, having served thousands of homeless folks in Chester free gourmet meals with restaurant-level service.
After hosting several private tasting dinners at his own home as a way to connect with friends and supporters, the idea became clear to offer a truly special experience for those ready to partner with our ministry.
Serre was born! Guests receive a personal culinary experience while hearing the impact stories from Greenhouse Project in Chester.
Become a champion who supports life transformation in Chester's under-resourced neighbors through this unique personal fundraiser experience — one you'll never forget.
“We enjoyed a 9-course meal with friends watching each intricate dish being prepared, all while learning the Greenhouse Project story. It’s incredible.”
The Serre Chef's Table is a private event fundraiser designed to serve eight guests. Guests enjoy a nine course tasting menu where each dish is just a few delicious bites.
It is hosted on select dates booked in advance. Guests can expect a 2 1/2 hour experience and are encouraged to arrive hungry as the gastronomic experience is carefully curated, sure to impress.
DONATIONS
All Greenhouse Project programs and outreach projects are donor supported. Serre is a unique way to combine one of the best dining out experiences with a direct contribution to a local community in need.
While there is no specific financial ask of guests, the cost to Greenhouse for hosting Serre is about $200 per guest.
Usually one donor would sponsor the table and invite guests that would generously support our programs in Chester. After hosting several meals to perfect the guest experience, we found that a comfortable donation ranges between $500-2,500+ to support our mission.
ALLERGIES
We do our best to accommodate mild allergies but cannot guarantee a nut, dairy, gluten or allergen-free environment, given the complexity of our menu. Please review the sample menu and let us know of any allergies. We are able to swap proteins or accommodate if we know in advance.
PARKING
We live in Chester with street parking only. We advise against leaving any valuables in your car and cannot be held responsible for any lost or stolen items.
BOOK SERRE
With this complexity of the meal, the Serre experience is designed to serve eight guests. We ask when booking that you invite friends, family or colleges that will generously support our mission.
