The high-style, laid back afternoon program held on November 11th kicked off with a Neiman Marcus fashion show presented in the Gathering Barn, featuring professional models along with a few very lucky children including Kendall McKnight. CULINAIRE provided the catering and the spectacular service staff for the event. A robust and satisfying Sunday Brunch menu was followed by music, activities and farm experiences at Hope Farms, the urban farm operated by Recipe for Success in Houston’s historic Sunnyside neighborhood.
