THE CULINARY ARTS & LETTERS SERIES is a seasonal event that brings in talented guest chefs and culinary writers from across the region and nationally. The series is a collaboration between Colin Bedford, the Executive Chef at Fearrington's two restaurants - the landmark Fearrington House Restaurant and the casual bar and grill, The Fearrington Granary Restaurant - and Keebe Fitch of McIntyre's Books, one of the South's most celebrated independent bookstores and which offers an  exceptional and expanded cookbook section.

The series kicked off in November 2011, with a special dinner with chef and author Hugh Acheson, on the occasion of the publication of his cookbook released from Clarkson Potter: A New Turn in the South.
