A Season of Good Taste 2021

Due to the recent rise in COVID-19 cases in the area, we have canceled the remaining dinners in the 2021 season.  We hope to see you next spring!

This year marks our 5th Annual dinner series, ‘A Season of Good Taste’, where we coordinate elegant dining experiences in the Garden with local and regional chefs.  We are forging ahead with plans for the 2021 season, some dinner events will be take out only, and the others are subject to change based on current public health conditions, so please bear with us.  We will keep you informed, do our best to provide you with safe options, and make the best decisions we can for everyone’s welfare.  We hope to see you all at the Garden very soon.

Tickets for the 2021 season are now on sale.  Reserve your tickets today! Today and every day we appreciate your continued support.
