Bellows Falls restaurant offers ‘dining field trip’ to Coolidge State Park

BELLOWS FALLS — If the mountain won't come to Popolo, Popolo will go to the mountain.

On Saturday, Sept. 10, the restaurant presents an evening in the Great Outdoors at Coolidge State Park in Plymouth, according to a news release.

The night starts with a prix fixe five-course dinner featuring New England game and area vegetables prepared and served by Popolo's kitchen and service staff. Every course comes from area farmers, fishermen, and artisanal producers.

Dinner will be served on china and linens in a historic old ski shelter on Bradley Hill. The shelter's handsomely restored timber construction and two massive stone fireplaces open onto sunset views of Killington and the grandeur of Green Mountain National Forest.

After sunset, national touring artists Arc Iris will take the stage and debut their long-awaited album, “Moon Saloon.” Tracks and videos from Moon Saloon, released internationally on the prestigious British label Bella Union, premiered in August on Spin.com, Stereogum.com, and NPR.
