We're pleased to announce that Sanctuary One has teamed up with FARM to FORK, a traveling farm-to-table restaurant, local food fundraiser, and community celebration rolled into one.
The unique FARM to FORK dinners are designed to reconnect people to the source of their food, and to honor the talented farmers, food artisans, winemakers, and chefs that contribute to the growing culinary reputations and local food communities of Southern Oregon.
Sanctuary One's FARM to FORK dinner will be held on Saturday, September 25 from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm at Eden Valley Orchards in a beautiful western-style historic barn with chandeliers.
Tickets are $60 person and includes a four course artisan meal, three glasses of wine, non-alcoholic beverages, a farm tour, and more. Seating is limited and FARM to FORK events typically sell out quickly, so we highly recommend you RSVP well in advance if you want to attend.
RSVP via email at Events@SanctuaryOne.org, or call Patty Davis, event coordinator, at 541.301.6361.
