The 18th annual Field to Table will take place on Friday, August 28, 2026. Thoughtfully planned by the Franklin Park Conservatory Women’s Board, led by 2026 Event Co-Chairs Gail Lewis and Janet Kerekes, this event raises funds to support the Conservatory’s community outreach, education and access programs. A perennial sell-out, this celebration of the late-summer harvest brings together 700 corporate and community leaders, Women’s Board members and their guests to enjoy a cocktail party and multi-course dinner, featuring locally grown and produced foods, in support of the Conservatory’s community impact.
Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our community, Field to Table is currently SOLD OUT; however, we invite you to sign up for our waitlist. Should seats become available, we will be in touch!
Your Field to Table generosity supports 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.
Can’t attend the event, but still want to support the cause? Your donation will go straight to work, connecting more community members with gardening knowledge, free resources and increased access to the Conservatory.
