Where: Newton Community Farm, 303 Nahanton Street

Spend a casual, summer evening socializing and dining on the lovely grounds of the Farm. Enjoy the live music and delightful conversations with other members of the farm community.
The dinner will be prepared by a local professional chef who will incorporate fresh vegetables from the farm into the menu. The menu will include a main entree (meat and/or fish), vegetable side dishes, salad, bread, and dessert. We will also serve an assortment of wine.
The ticket price covers the cost of food and provides some contribution to cover NCF’s education program. Wine will be sold for $5 per glass.
The event is held outside so unfortunately, we cancel it in the event of rain (if this happens, people will be given a choice of donation or refund). Please check our website the morning of the event to confirm the status.
We are also recruiting volunteers to help with this event! Interested? Click HERE for more information and to sign up.
We hope to see you at this event!
