BLOOMFIELD- Auerfarm is excited to announce the 9th annual Party in Plaid Fundraiser, a farm-to-table dinner celebration, on Friday, June 21, 2024, from 6:00-9:00 p.m. This flagship event helps fund Auerfarm’s mission of inspiring children and adults to engage in, learn about, and enjoy agriculture, science, and the natural environment.
The evening will feature a multi-course farm-to-table dinner prepared by resident Chef Kristiann and the team at Distinctive Ideas. Local beer and wine will be served alongside the night’s signature cocktail, the Auerfarm Spritzer. Guests can bid on exciting items and experiences during silent and live auctions, with music entertainment provided by the Soul Queens.
“Party in Plaid is a time when we celebrate the good that Auerfarm does for our community. As we enjoy a true farm-to-table meal we have the opportunity to reflect on all that we have accomplished and support the future of Auerfarm,” said Executive Director Erica Fearn.
Auerfarm encourages guests to don their best plaid for this festive farm event. Tickets are $125 per guest with limited availability. RSVP by June 14 to reserve your spot.
All proceeds from the 9th annual Party in Plaid Fundraiser will directly benefit Auerfarm’s mission of cultivating a healthy and sustainable future for all through hands-on learning experiences.
