Farm Dining
At Elawa Farm Foundation, our mission comes to life with our dining programs. It’s gathering our community, breaking bread together, and supporting our local farm community through our sourcing.
Our goal is for you to know what you are eating and to meet the people that grew and prepared your food. We aim for total transparency and accountability in our food, from seed to plate.
Burger Night (Community Dinner)
Wednesdays

Burger Night is your invitation to enjoy Elawa Farm in its most relaxed and welcoming form—a casual, family-friendly community dinner centered around locally sourced ingredients, bold flavors, and gathering around the table. Each week features a new signature charcoal-grilled burger, seasonal sides, and a buffet of homemade desserts.
For every ticket purchased, one serving of ground beef will be donated to families supported by North Chicago Community Partners, extending the spirit of sharing beyond our table.
