Jedediah Hawkins – Memorial Day Weekend – Summer Sunday Kick Off
This Sunday the 26th May, Jedediah Hawkins celebrates the long weekend and warmer weather with an outdoor event for the whole family… including the dogs.

For $65 for adults and $25 for kids, guests will enjoy an open air raw bar, a pig roast, beer, sangria, live music from the much-loved Mark Anderson band and an art exhibition in the barn from Eileen Weisbacher. There will also be a hot dog cart for the kids, special treats for the dogs and lots more.

“We wanted to take advantage of the warmer weather and shake things up in the kitchen… so we took it outside! We have such beautiful grounds here and have just put in a pond-side beach, hammocks and X so bring a picnic rug, get your family together, pack the dog in the car and come join us!” said Lia Fallon, executive chef at Jedediah Hawkins.

Tickets can be bought by phoning (631) 722 – 2900 or on the day, subject to availability.

Spring blooms at Jedediah in Jamesport

Monday May 13, 2013 11:56 AM By Peter M. Gianotti

There’s spring in the step and on the menu at the Jedediah Hawkins Inn in Jamesport.
New chef Lia Fallon, formerly of Amarelle in Wading River, has fashioned a delicious seasonal menu at the landmark house.
From delectable spring vegetables, fine as a side order or with asta for a genuinely local primavera, to an asparagus-ricotta-and-olive flatbread, lobster-and-shrimp fritters, crisp duck rolls and diver scallops with creamed ramps, the retooled restaurant is worth visiting as soon as you can.

Sunday, April 14th at 2 pm in the Solarium

Wine Travel Destination 2013: North & South Forks of Long Island, New York

Just a two-hour drive from Manhattan, the East End is a unique amalgam of metropolitan influences against a core of hearty, agricultural tradition. Fringed by sandy beaches and bustling fishing villages, rolling farmland and forest sanctuaries, Long Island wine country is unlike any region in America. The North and South Forks of the island, collectively known as the East End, extend into the Atlantic Ocean like a two-tined fork, with picturesque Shelter Island wedged between the spears. Just a two-hour drive from Manhattan, it’s a unique amalgam of metropolitan influences against a core of hearty, agricultural tradition. Family-owned farms, artisanal food producers and small-production winemakers mingle amongst tony Hamptonites, sharing the wealth of the region’s land, sea and vines.
