Lassen Land and Trails Trust has announced that the 7th annual Farm to Table Dinner fundraiser will be held at 5:00p.m., on August 17th, at Mountain Meadow Ranch on Wingfield Road, featuring a magical evening of farm fresh cuisine prepared by Chef Tim Keesey.
“This picturesque evening is generously hosted by Mountain Meadow Ranch, a beautiful rural gem that traditionally served as a Maidu hunting camp, first developed into the ranch seen today by George Wingfield in 1902,” explains Farm to Table organizer Amy Holmen.
“Today Mountain Meadow Ranch is lovingly owned and run by the Ellena Family, who have run a well-loved summer camp on the grounds since 1956. Established by Jack Ellena Sr, the stewardship of the land and summer camp was assumed by his son Chip and his wife Jody.”
“Today, Chip and Judy’s two daughters and their families maintain the traditions and care instituted by Jack Sr., including the values of Servant Leadership within the camp; this is inspired by the Mountain Maidu’s “Serve All” mentality and includes stewardship, true listening, integrity, and inclusivity.”
The annual Farm to Table event includes an hors d’oeuvres hour, followed by an intimate three course meal paired with fine wines. The three-course meal in the idyllic setting of Mountain Meadows Ranch will showcase locally raised beef and mouthwatering fresh-seasonal vegetables.
Tickets are $150 each and the event has limited capacity and always sells out. Tickets are available online at or in-person at Every Bloomin’ Thing, Margie’s Book Nook and The Golden Poppy Café.
“Lassen Land and Trails Trust gives its heartfelt thanks to the many volunteers and generous donations of individuals and businesses that support this event and the numerous projects of Lassen Land and Trails Trust. This year we are proud to have Cooper-Garrod Estate Vineyards and Sierra Cascade Nursery as returning sponsors of this special evening. The evenings’ annual auction will include donated spirits and other unique items- all proceeds of the auction contribute to the important fundraising that supports the Land Trusts’ initiatives.”
