Farm Dinner Menus
Dinner at Farm at Soons Orchards features a unique menu each month, created specifically to feature what’s fresh and in season – after all, that’s what farm to table dining is all about, right?
Please note that menus are typically finalized as we get closer to dinner dates (based on ingredient availability and seasonality). We encourage you not to wait though, as often seats will sell out before the menu is even posted!
With proper notice, we can accommodate most food restrictions/allergies.
