After a two year break the annual local food dinner is back! This event brings together members of our community to share a table, a story, and a meal, while supporting our local food system.

This incredible four-course meal will be prepared by local chefs utilizing local ingredients. During the event we will hear from a panel of local producers including Carolyn Adolphs with Adolphs Produce, Louis Beck with Beck Orchard, Daquan Campbell, and Ehren Marks with Marks Family Purebreds.
