Enjoy the flavors of summer fresh from the Quivira farm to the wine country table.

Guests will taste ingredients picked straight from the garden. Winemaker/grower Steven Canter, farm manager Andrew Beedy and Quivira staff will discuss their efforts to support a biodiverse farm through beekeeping and herbs used to make preparations that keep the farm healthy. Guests will then enjoy a tour of the vineyard as they walk to The Fig Tree under which we'll share the evening's feast at the beautiful, linen-covered farm table. Of course, the menu is paired with Quivira wines. Chef- farmer Doug Nicosia of Sensuous Farms has created a gorgeous, fresh menu that truly highlights the diverse bounty that comes from the Quivira soil, including several Slow Food Ark of Taste ingredients.
This dinner will be held outside on a working vineyard/farm so please dress casually, bring sunscreen and a sweater, and wear sturdy shoes. Guests will walk about 300 yards through the vineyards from the winery to The Fig Tree before being seated seated for dinner.
