Autumn Affair at Willowbrook Farm

Join us for an enchanting Autumn evening at Willowbrook Farm as we gather in the historic Upper Barn for our Fall Harvest Dinner.

Limited to just 20 guests, this intimate gathering celebrates the abundance of the season and the joy of slowing down to share a meal around a communal table. At Life’s Patina, we believe in the power of food, design, and atmosphere to create moments that linger long after the evening ends—and this dinner is crafted with that very intention.

As you arrive, you’ll be welcomed by the soft glow of candlelight, the beauty of Willowbrook Farm in Fall, and the rustic charm of the season. Sip a seasonal mocktail in vintage glassware as you mingle with fellow guests, surrounded by the textures and tones that only autumn can bring.

Then, gather at a long farmhouse table set within the Upper Barn—its weathered beams and storied walls carrying the history of generations past, now reimagined as a warm backdrop for new memories to be made. Layered linens, flickering candles, and natural elements will set the stage for an evening steeped in the spirit of the harvest season.

Chef Teresa McCann will present a 6-course menu inspired by the bounty of fall, highlighting the freshest ingredients from our farm and neighboring purveyors. Each dish is thoughtfully designed to celebrate the flavors and richness of this beloved season.

To close the evening, Pastry Chef Morgan Bainbridge will present a decadent dessert that captures autumn’s sweetest notes—an edible memory to savor long after the night has ended.

This is a BYOB event—please bring a bottle of wine or your favorite drink to complement the meal. We will be serving a seasonal mocktail, water throughout the evening, and coffee or tea with dessert.
