HARVEST DINNER
Celebrate the Harvest.

As the sun begins to set, Harvest Table transforms into an intimate long-table dining experience celebrating the extraordinary bounty of Vancouver Island.
Participating chefs will collaborate with Vancouver Island farmers, fishers, growers and producers on a multi-course dinner rooted in the harvest season. Each course will connect the people, ingredients and place behind the dish.
Guests will experience exceptional hospitality, live music and chef, farmer, fisher and producer storytelling that keeps the meal at the centre while creating a deeper connection to the people who made it possible.
