Enjoy ingredients from regional farms, dishes from local chefs, in one night under the stars with friends. A limited number of $125 tickets are NOW available. This special event will benefit the Welcome Center and has generated a lot of buzz so we do expect to sell out. Chatham County's agriculture and creative cultures define much of our lives here.
