Our amazing chef Lisa, who is also the co-founder of Cedar Lakes Estate, came up with a gorgeous spread that was packed full of the flavors of autumn. Buckets of harvested squash, plums, pears from local farmers loosely scattered on the moss tainted dock, a silver platter with baked camembert topped with thyme and fresh cranberries, ficelle toasts, local honey, figs, persimmons, beautiful green Niagra grapes and deep inky concord grapes.
