Home church events, rehearsal dinners, weddings, and the farm-hosted gatherings that are becoming Chef Juan’s® Florence signature.
Florence, South Carolina is home. Chef Juan’s family farm has been in the McAllister family since 1941, 25 to 35 acres now being brought back into production through Clemson, South Carolina State, and NRCS conservation programs. Chef Juan’s catering history in Florence runs through the community: events at his home church, a rehearsal dinner he still remembers, and, in October 2026, a farm-hosted event with South Carolina State University on Chef Juan’s own land. Comfort food anchors most Florence menus. The full catering menu is available for weddings, private events, and corporate work throughout Florence and the Pee Dee region.
Chef Juan’s Florence Story
Florence is where the farm is. It’s also where Chef Juan has catered home-church events and a rehearsal dinner over the years. In October 2026, Chef Juan is hosting an event on the farm with South Carolina State University, the first steps of what will eventually be regular farm-to-table hosting once production is fully going.
