Tables in Wonderland cardholders are invited to attend another exclusive dining experience at The Wave restaurant located at Disney's Contemporary Resort. This event, the latest in the Dinner Discovery Series, is entitled Celebrating Beef and Corn.
The Wave’s Discovery Dinner
Celebrating Beef and Corn
Thursday, May 21, 2009
The Wave Restaurant is delighted to offer a special series of dining events for the Tables in Wonderland Members. The third event will celebrate beef and corn. Hank Scott, President of Long & Scott Farms, will host the dinner with Chef Frank Brough and Area Manager Stephen Shepherd. We will also be featuring a winemaker from the New World with a great selection of wines paired to each course.
Hank Scott represents the third generation of the Scott family's farming tradition. Long & Scott Farms was established in 1963 by Billy Long and Frank Scott, Jr. who were childhood friends from the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Billy, who had been a Zellwood "muck farmer" for years, talked Frank into joining him in Florida where the farm was established on 100 acres of land. For the next 30 plus years Frank expanded Long & Scott Farms to 1,200 acres as they produced Zellwood Sweet Corn, pickle cucumbers and both red & green cabbage, along with a variety of other produce. Hank, who has worked on the farm since he was a boy, returned to the farm full-time after graduating from the University of South Florida. Following the sale of the Apopka muck farms in 1998, Billy Long moved on to retirement, while Frank Scott retired and Hank took over the management of the farm. Hank's son, Sonny, is the fourth generation to join the family operation and the Scott's remain proud of their farm and land which they have overseen for more than 45 years.
