In the Mississippi River Hills of Southeastern Missouri

The Mississippi River Hills Association (MRHA) seeks to develop, connect, and market products that are produced within the region.
Together we seek to strengthen our regional economy while retaining all that is good, for the benefit of future generations.
We also encourage visitors to tour the region, people interested in learning more about rural America - the unique history of the region,
the cultural flavors, the river and the great outdoors, and how great fresh foods can taste.

Spring Lamb? Free-range chicken? Strawberries?

. . . What do these have in common? Why MRHA’s first 2010 open-air dinner!

When? Early evening of May 22, 2010,
Where? Bolduc House Museum, 124 Main Street, Ste. Genevieve, Missouri

The Mississippi River Hills Association is so excited. For our Spring Garden Gala, Chef Adam Lambay, Chaumette Winery's head chef, is creating our own signature dish using spring lamb in a scrumptious Shepherd’s pie. Then he is preparing our free-range chicken in a wine sauce he has perfected using a white wine from Charleville Winery. Yum! Yum! And let’s not forget – homemade strawberry rhubarb cobbler to top it off. Oh my!

Make an afternoon of your adventure. A self-guided tour of the Bolduc Historic Properties is included in your patronage. Plan at least an hour to enjoy the three colonial houses and Bolduc gift shop. The appetizers and wine start at 5 p.m. with dinner served at 5:30 pm.

Your journey back in time is a week from this Saturday (May22). So reserve your tickets now by sending an e-mail to: coordinator@mississippiriverhills.org; then download your order form by visiting www.MississippiRiverHills.org, and send in your payment.

We can’t wait to enjoy your company!
