Award Winning Farm-to-Table Dinners
Harvestville Farm is excited to announce this year’s Farm-to-Table Dinners for the 2024 season! Our award winning Farm-to-Table Dinners feature fresh produce picked straight from our garden, along with locally grown fruits, vegetables, and meats prepared by area chefs within our regional community. Seasonal menus are chosen as collaborations between each chef and our farm to enhance our guest’s dining experience through incredible flavors, textures, and vibrant color presentations.
Farm-to-Table Dinners are a wonderful way to have a truly authentic dining experience set within Southeast Iowa’s beautiful countryside. Each dinner consists of a five-course meal, along with a beautiful atmosphere, great conversation, a cocktail bar and wonderful music!
