YOU'RE INVITED

- 2024 -

We invite you to our urban farm as we celebrate 26 years of Growing Gardens nonprofit programs that have reached over 200,000 community members to gain access to healthy, sustainably grown food and garden-based nutrition education since 1998. Enjoy small bites, a cocktail hour, live music, and a silent/live auction, while soaking in the beautiful views of the Flatirons and celebrating the heart of our work in Boulder County.

Please Note: This event is for adults, 21+    

We are excited to welcome 5 local chefs for this year's gala, who will be crafting deliciously curated small plates at stations around the Growing Gardens farm.
