From Paul August 11th, 2025
We had an unforgettable evening attending a cooking class with Mary Jane Cooks on Saturday, where we unleashed our culinary potential and created unforgettable dishes. Together, we crafted Eggplant Caponata, Steak Tagliata with Fresh Bruschetta, Porcini and Fresh Sweet Corn Polenta, and Espresso Granita with Whipped Mascarpone and Italian Butter Cookies. Mary Jane and her husband welcomed us into their home, fostering an intimate setting that ignited our passion for cooking. With each step, Mary Jane shared expert tips, empowering us to elevate our culinary skills. We were so captivated by the experience that we forgot to capture the moments . If you're seeking a date night that will transform your relationship, we highly recommend joining Mary Jane and Michael for an unforgettable evening of cooking and discovery.
Kind words from Photographer Jessica Mickey, Aug. 3,2025 :
Last night was nothing short of magical at Harvestville Farm
I had the absolute pleasure of photographing another one of their Farm to Table Dinners, and wow, wow, wow! What an incredible evening! From the golden hour glow casting over the fields to the vibrant, thoughtfully prepared courses by Chef Mary Jane Miller, every detail was stunning and full of heart.
Each dish told a story of freshness and intention, summer squash and herbs bursting with flavor, savory beef atop creamy polenta, chilled cucumber soup adorned with edible flowers, and a beautiful salad that looked just like summer. And don’t even get me started on the views. That sunset? A showstopper, even if it was only for 30 seconds.
Even more than the food and the scenery, the people that make it so special. There’s something deeply grounding about coming together around a table, sharing laughter and local flavor underneath the twinkling lights of the barn.
So grateful to be part of this community and for the chance to capture such a beautiful evening with my camera and my palette!

Mary Jane was excellent in providing us with an experience that couldn't have been more fun. She was able to respond to all of our questions in a way that was very understandable. Will be returning sometime in the future.

From the moment we arrived we were treated as special guests in her beautiful home! Easy conversation and delicious food were in abundance. Chef Mary Jane taught us how to make a complete meal from appetizer to dessert, showing us that what we thought "might be difficult" was really not that hard to do at all! We highly recommend this as a date night activity!
