A Gouda Afternoon at Chadds Ford Greenhouses

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

What a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon: tasting fine cheese, sipping bubbly and local brew, hobnobbing with orchids and succulents alike, and catching up with friends. It’s events like these that remind us of how beautiful it feels to slow down and enjoy some of the more simple pleasures in life; those simple pleasures that, when savored slowly under the diffused light of a greenhouse, taken in with the fresh green oxygen of plant life respiration, reach rather kingly heights when juxtaposed to the busy-busy of the day-to-day.  A few weeks ago, it was a dream come true, for our cheese and orchid happy hour, at the ever enchanting, never-ending Chadds Ford Greenhouses. Anne Eder, who has  migrated from her orchid shop, Chansonette, in Kennett Square, to dig into the expansive and well-revered Chadds Ford Greenhouses, has truly set up shop there, with more space to spread her green wings and visionary roots.

If you missed this event, don’t dismay, Chadds Ford Greenhouses is open daily, and well stocked with all you could ever desire in the way of plants for spring; and we are already planning our next “pop-up cheese tasting.” A little birdie is telling us that this time around it will be landing somewhere in the land of the arts. In the meantime, for all your slow food staples and carefully curated cheeses, come see us at your favorite local digs, Talula’s Table.
