Swan Creek Online Auction Now Live

By Chuck Sudo in Food on May 21, 2009 3:36PM

The drive to help Swan Creek Farms' George Rasmussen get a new truck continues. Last week, we mentioned in the "Friday Buffet" installment that an online auction would be held for the opportunity for a private dinner for 6 cooked by the likes of Stephanie Izard, Koren Grieveson, Paul Virant, Carol Wallack, Bill Kim, and others.

That auction is now live and bidding will remain open until the 28th. The bids on Kim are a bit rich for us, but the high bid on Izard is currently $250. And why is no one bidding on Wallack or Carnivale's Mark Mendez?
