Join inspiring food authors and farmers at the farm table this fall.

Enjoy farm-to-table dining and inspiring discussion with authors and farmers working to help people rethink the way they eat.

This 3-part dinner series (Sept., Oct., and Nov.) is carefully crafted around the discussion of important writings on food justice, farming, and community. Share conversation around a table laden with delicious, local food from neighboring farmers. Each evening will also be flavored with live music.

Dinners will be casual and participants are welcome to bring any beverages their choice or any dishes of their own to add to the table. You are also welcome to just bring an appetite as there will be a full plate ready for you.

Tickets to the full dinner series can be booked at the top this page for $150 per person. If you are unable to attend all three dinners, you can give or sell your unused tickets, or we can assist with offering to a local farmer with advance notice. You can also select a dinner below to book individually for $50 each.
