This year’s Haven of Grace Farm and Fields brought together two days of celebration of spring, creative cuisine, wildlife and the great outdoors. Friday evening, April 24, 2015, included St Louis originals- the inspired Southern style food of John Perkins, the soul satisfying  bluegrass tunes of Watt Hill and the novel collection of art honoring man’s best friend at Queeny Park’s AKC Museum of the Dog.

A featured live auction item spotlighted two majestic falcons for guests to meet as part of Falconry, Sport of Kings,plus  a cuddly black goldendoodle puppy. Guests perused the Dog Museum and enjoyed signature drinks and cuisine prior to the live auction. The skeet shoot competition occurred Saturday, April 25 at Strathalbyn Farms Club.

Haven of Grace’ mission:  Serving women who are young, pregnant and homeless, it provides a safe, nurturing home, educational programs and long-term support for mother and child. Founded in faith, it instills hope, dignity and the pride of independence, one family at a time.
