Farm to Table Dinners



Find out where your food is grown!


Farm to Table Lunches and Dinners are memorable events. Whether you live here, are relocating to the area, or are visiting, you should definitely try one of our Volusia County Farm Events. 

·         You eat al fresco in a beautiful setting.
·         You enjoy dishes made from foods predominantly grown on the local farm hosting the event.
·         You get to know your local farmer/s.
·         You will go on a farm tour.
·         Often you can buy produce while you’re there.
·         The atmosphere is amazing – and so is the food.


Two such events are coming up this Saturday, March 28! 

 

Green Flamingo Farm is in Oak Hill.  With 3 acres in production, Green Flamingo aims to introduce the community to an amazingly tasty and beautifully unique way of eating.  Their beautiful produce can be found at the New Smyrna Beach Farmers’ Market on Saturday mornings, the Brevard County Farmers’ Market on Thursdays, and through their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Program from August to May. 

 The dinner at Green Flamingo is a rustic farm to table event. They will serve foods that have been harvested freshly from fields, source local seafood, dairy, and other goodies from other local farms. The food will be prepared right at the farm. Farm tours will take place during hors d'oeuvres to show their fields and educate visitors about where the food comes from. This meal that will be served is all about fresh and seasonal ingredients.  It will be featuring homemade cheese, home brewed beers, and the best produce and proteins that the farm has to offer.


The event runs from 4-7pm and costs $40 per person ($35 for CSA members). To purchase tickets, visit Green Flamingo Organics or call Liz: 386.576.4298.
