Farm-to-Bar and herBARio
Adam Seger, one of the leading bar chefs in the country and award-winning restaurant/lounge Nacional 27 have teamed with a local farm, Harvest Moon Farms, for their "Farm to Bar" culinary and cocktail project.

The 20-acre certified organic farm in southwest Wisconsin is led by Chicago foodies Bob and Jennifer Borcardt. They have channeled their passion for farm fresh food and sustainable agriculture through heirloom vegetables and 49 varieties of produce.This new partnership and program brings farm artisan produce and herbs to Adam Seger's world of mixology.

Harvest Moon Farm is located on a driftless region on the south fork of the Bad Axe River. The site is ideal as it holds the perfect balance of acres on pristine, fertile land, with a 4,500 square foot barn, packing facility and kitchen.Harvest Moon Farms offers members a share in the growing season, enjoying the weekly produce as it is available, sometimes within 48 hours of harvest. Nacional 27 has a custom plot on the farm and utilizes produce and herbs for their creative, seasonal cocktails.

Nacional 27 also has an herb garden created by Amy Cox, founder of Cutting Edge/subURBAN Homestead, a consulting company that works with both restaurants and non-professionals in creating sustainable practices.
