Seafood Boil - Summer Kickoff
June 2023
Kula Urban Farm, Asbury Park, NJ
What better way to celebrate the beginning of summer than with an epic Seafood Boil at Kula Farm!
Guests enjoyed a welcome reception of local oysters on the half shell, iced cucumbers with whipped feta dip. We played yard games, toured the Kula gardens, and sipped on Specialty Mocktails and Cocktails mixed with Codigo1530 Tequila.
For the main event, we gathered around a long table in the greenhouse and feasted on a delicious boil, while grooving to live music by local legend, Quincy Mumford.
