Go to the 2012 Events Page of our website. Click on the event you would like to attend, input the number of tickets you would like to purchase and proceed to the checkout. If you would like to purchase tickets to multiple events, you can add them all to your shopping cart prior to checking out. When making your reservation, please include all of your contact information (including email address and phone number) so we can communicate with you effectively. After you make your reservation, you will receive a confirmation email from us.
What should I wear and what should I bring?
Dinner is literally on the farm. Therefore, the terrain will be uneven, dusty, and possibly muddy so please wear practical shoes. Bring a picnic blanket or chairs to sit on while enjoying dinner. Dress is typically casual, but most importantly we urge you to dress comfortably. Dinners will be held rain or shine, so please wear or bring appropriate layers. Sunscreen, sweaters/wraps and sunglasses are all appropriate accessories. Also, given the season, time of day and our various locations, it can’t hurt to pack some bug spray as well – just in case.
What happens at the dinners?
The evenings begin at 5 pm, unless otherwise noted. There will be a farm tour at 5:30 p.m., and dinner will be served around 6:30. A typical dinner is self-served from a long table, family-style. In addition, the dinners provide a wonderful opportunity to meet and talk with local farmers whose food you will be enjoying. As dessert is served, a local band will be warming up to provide the evening’s entertainment. Most events will also include a bonfire after dinner and some will provide the option to camp overnight.
What is the price for the dinners and what is included in that price?
The price of the dinner is $75 per adult, and free for those 15 and under. Your ticket includes a donation to a local food non profit organization, a feast sourced from the host farm, locally brewed beer, all service and gratuities, producer discussions, a farm tour and live music.
What’s for dinner?
All of the food for the dinners will come from local producers, much of it from the dinner site itself. Each dinner is cooked from scratch and showcases that day’s best produce. Because the ingredients are sourced daily from local farmers, ranchers and fisherman, our menu will be different each evening and we are not able to provide one in advance. However, we can assure you that you will have an incredible dining experience with the most local, fresh and flavorful foods available!! Vegetarian options are available if requested at time of reservation.
Can you accommodate children at the events?
Absolutely! All events are family-friendly. We feel it is very important for children to see where their food comes from and how it is grown!
Can you accomodate pets at the events?
Please do not bring your pets.
When will I receive directions to the farm and other important information?
We send out invitations to our confirmed guests at least two weeks prior to the event. These will include directions to the farm and all finalized dinner details.
What if I need to cancel my reservation?
Due to the nature of our events no refunds will be given for cancellations, however reservations are transferable. If you cannot attend the dinner and you wish to transfer your tickets please contact us with new guest information prior to the event. If you are interested in selling your tickets, a good place to post the information is on our Facebook page. Transfer of funds for your tickets is your responsibility.
