Last night, Brody Square’s Alice Creyts Room transformed into a culinary showcase for the Student Organic Farm-to-Fork Feast: Chef’s Table Edition.

Hosted by Executive Chef Dustin Ignash and Sous Chef Joe Balander, this exclusive experiential dining event brought students together for an unforgettable, local culinary journey.

Students enjoyed a five-course meal celebrating sustainable agriculture at Michigan State University.
Every dish was carefully constructed around fresh, vibrant ingredients grown right down the road at MSU’s Student Organic Farm. 🥕 🥦 🥬
