Farm to Table Dinner
Saturday, September 10
No stranger to good old-fashioned fun, this year we celebrate the Harvest Moon and all that it brings from abundant produce, howling coyotes, and memories of those perfect nights for skinny dipping.
Feast upon a summer’s bounty, barter for one-of-a-kind experiences, and outbid your neighbors to claim an award-winning dessert in the pie auction!
Finally, come for the fun and leave knowing you’ve helped to raise essential support for environmental education and land stewardship in our corner of southeastern Wisconsin.
