Appleton Cooks! is heating up with new Dinners in the Field and family friendly events. Sign up soon!

June 21st
Our first Dinner in the Field will kick off the high season at the farm.
Arrive to a chilled signature cocktail and enjoy the view out over the abundant fields. Then follow our farmers on a short, optional stroll around the farm tailored to the dinner’s theme. Gather back around the set tables and sit down to a seasonally inspired, four-course dinner highlighting ingredients made or grown by Appleton and other local producers. It’s fine dining, farm style—and our farmers will share the table and some stories from the fields. Don’t miss this special opportunity to enjoy all that Appleton has to offer on a relaxed summer evening.  All the details and online registration at www.thetrustees.org/appletoncooks
