Bonton Farms

Before Bonton Farms, Bonton was a food desert. Thanks to Daron Babcock and key community partners, this neighborhood is now home to an urban garden and a thriving community market that seeks to transform lives by disrupting systems of inequity. We’ll be setting the table at their 40-acre farm which supplies the community with a huge variety of fresh produce in addition to eggs and milk from free-range chickens and goats, as well as housing a working apiary. Bonton Farms also runs a comprehensive health and wellness program with nutrition counseling, health screenings, and cooking classes. This is a seriously inspiring place paired with an equally inspiring chef. Cafe Momentum is a nonprofit restaurant and professional training facility that works with young men and women exiting juvenile detention. It’s also consistently named one of the best restaurants in Dallas thanks to guest chef Chad Houser. The cafe is known for house-made charcuterie, cheeses and vinegars in addition to their signature dish: smoked fried chicken.
