Save the Date: Harvest Dinner 2025

Join us for an exclusive farm-to-fork experience

Your support provides Southside youth a safe space to access valuable resources and experiences. Young people are building skills, exploring their interests, and creating brighter futures for themselves in out-of-schooltime programs.

Our Harvest Dinner will feature food grown on our youth-led urban farm by our Urban Agriculture interns and prepared by our Culinary Arts
apprentices under the mentorship of distinguished Chicago chefs.

  • The event will open with handcrafted cocktails and small bites, accompanied by live music in the Exhibit Hall overlooking our farm and rooftop garden
  • Dinner will be served on the Farm Meet our young apprentices and distinguished Chicago chefs – mentors and collaborators on the evening’s extraordinary menu
  • Explore gourmet stations and savor specialty dishes
  • Exclusive auction will feature chef-provided experiences
