hank you to the more than 700 community members who gathered on August 22 to celebrate the 17th annual Field to Table fundraiser! Each year, Field to Table raises critical funds to support the Conservatory’s community outreach, education and access programs.
Thoughtfully planned by the Conservatory Women’s Board, expertly led by Co-Chairs Pam Archer and Christine Farquhar, this year’s event welcomed corporate sponsors, community leaders, Women’s Board members and guests, and partnered with dozens of regional farmers, Columbus restaurateurs, local distillers, craft brewers and more, all of whom came together in support of Conservatory programs like these:
- Growing to Green provides free resources and capacity building for community gardens.
- Teen Corps mentors teens, guiding them in building life and work skills through urban farming.
- Programs like Community Days remove barriers to access, making the Conservatory and its resources free for everyone on the first Sunday of every month.
Although this year’s event has passed, it’s not too late to make a donation in support of these and other programs! Your generosity empowers community gardeners, provides hands-on learning for young people, bridges gaps in food access, and ensures the Conservatory and its resources are accessible to more members of our community. Thank you!
