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.
