Episode 508

We stroll down memory lane with Bruce and Dr. King’s older sister Dr. Christine King Farris at The Martin Luther King Jr. Center, Atlanta’s official memorial to a world changing leader. Then it’s off to Athens with Chef Marvin Woods for a meal at Farm 255, a unique restaurant that delivers a seasonal menu from their own farms. Next we join David where Bald Eagles soar and Giant anacondas slither at Georgia Southern University’s Center for Wildlife Education. It’s time to play ball with Michelle and the Rome Braves and connect with a few up and coming Major Leaguers.
All that and more on the next… Georgia Traveler!

Farm 255

Athens, Ga.

Chef Marvin Woods takes us to Farm255. A place that serves up the fruit of Georgia’s red earth, this Athens establishment gives its guests a true taste of the state. Farm 255’s menu is derived from what they grow at their own farms…making it a farm and table restaurant. It’s one of the first restaurants in the country to adopt this approach.
