About this Event
Join us as we come together to celebrate 25 years of Sharing the Harvest with an evening of food, friends and festivities on Saturday, October 11th.
LUSH Valley’s Harvest Social is part harvest celebration, part community fundraiser, and all about gathering in good company. Savor a buffet dinner made from Comox Valley-local ingredients, sip handcrafted cocktails, mocktails or locally brewed beer and wine, enjoy classic fair games, a silent auction and raffle, and tap your toes to live music, all in support of LUSH Valley and Comox Valley farmers.
Date: Saturday, October 11th
Time: 5:00 – 9:00 PM
Location: Florence Filberg Centre Conference Hall, 411 Anderton Ave, Courtenay
Early bird pricing available until August 31st, 2025.
Start the night with a cocktail or mocktail infused with local, seasonal ingredients, or local beer or wine. Then, enjoy a buffet dinner prepared by LUSH Valley Catering in partnership with The Farmer’s Kitchen Food Truck. Each dish will be a celebration of Comox Valley’s farmers, crafted from local ingredients to showcase the rich flavours and abundance of our region, and tell a story about our community—the crops that grow here and the folks that grow them.
The fun won’t stop at the table! Throughout the night, enjoy timeless fair games like cornhole, browse our silent auction for locally-crafted goodies, enter to win raffle items, and tap your toes to live music thanks to local musicians and farmers The Broadfork Duo.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 to help LUSH Valley Share the Harvest for another 25 years. The need for our programs is greater than ever, but rising costs and a decrease in available grant funding continue to create financial pressure. Your support ensures LUSH Valley can continue to support our community through nourishing food.
Come for the food, stay for the fun, and leave knowing you’ve helped your community grow.
About the Food:
draws inspiration from a variety of global street vendors and puts a vibrant twist on dishes by highlighting local, in-season ingredients. For over five years, the Farmer’s Kitchen has been partnering with LUSH Valley on catering, community events, fundraising and the Hot Meal Program.
provides sustainable, nourishing, locally-sourced meals that give back to our community. We strive to transform the bounty of the Comox Valley into menus that tell a story about our community—the crops that grow here and the folks that grow them. All revenues from LUSH Valley Catering go back into LUSH Valley’s other programs, helping the Comox Valley receive equitable access to nourishing food.
About the Music:
is Sweet Spreaders Corey Scheiding and Michelle Fillion. They make music the same way they grow veggies; by cultivating a mixed cover crop of home-grown originals and heirloom cover tunes. Sometimes they leave the farm to seek the bright lights of the city.
