Get ready for a night of fun on the farm! Join us at The FARM Institute for an unforgettable evening celebrating farming, food, and community. Savor a delicious farm-to-table dinner featuring The FARM Institute chicken and seasonal produce from our partner farms. Support the farm’s education programs by bidding on unique experiences in the silent auction. Enjoy live music from The Sultans, and don’t miss out on this spectacular annual fundraiser.  

Proceeds from the event support The FARM Institute’s programming such as summer camp and cooking classes, in addition to offering scholarships and free field trips for Island students. We look forward to gathering with you to celebrate the importance of local food and the land that sustains us.
