We have always known where good food comes from — family farmers, from carefully tended land, from a genuine commitment to doing things the right way.

Some events carry more weight than others. The DC Firefighters Burn Foundation's annual Night at the Navy Yard gala is one of them.

There are venues in Washington, DC that carry a certain weight. The Library of Congress is one of them. As one of the Library's preferred catering partners, Founding Farmers Co. Catering & Events recently had the privilege of hosting a full service plated dinner for 140 members of the Texas House of Representatives inside one of the most storied institutions in the country. It was exactly the kind of event that reminds us why the details matter. What Full Service Plated Dinne

Some venues stop you in your tracks. Willowood Washington is one of them. A historic American farm set into the rolling hills of Washington County, Maryland, it is the kind of place where the land itself sets the tone, and where every detail of an event feels elevated simply by being there.
