“The Farm to Table Dinner is one of the highlights of the farm year,” Operations Director Katy Rogers said. “We’re on track to raise and donate 45,000 servings of fresh organic produce to Hamilton County residents in need.”

Tickets are $85 each and include appetizers, a three-course meal with a choice of chicken or vegetarian entrée, and two drinks (including beer and wine). Sponsorship packages are also available starting at just $500.

This year’s event, supported by Mission Partners Daystar Directional Drilling along with Jackie and Dave Cox, promises a delightful culinary experience. The menu will prominently feature fresh vegetables from Teter Organic Farm. The culinary expertise will be provided by Sahm’s Hospitality Group, a renowned local family-owned culinary powerhouse, ensuring a memorable dining experience that highlights local produce and flavors while supporting a great mission.

The evening will feature a program moderated by Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen and a panel of special guests, including the leaders who created Teter Organic Farm: Pastor Aaron Hobbs, the first Director, Jonah Tabb, Teter’s first Farm Manager, and Katy Rogers, Teter’s current Operations Director. The program will celebrate the origins of this incredible mission while sharing the path to expanding Teter’s food security mission.

Hamilton County Community Foundation is a sponsor and community partner in Teter’s food security mission.

“We are grateful to support Teter Organic Farm as they work to increase access to healthy food for those who are food insecure throughout Hamilton County,” said Jeena Siela, Senior Community Leadership Officer for Hamilton County Community Foundation. “They are a vital partner in the Hamilton County Food Resource Coalition, led by the Hamilton County Community Foundation, in which they lend their time and talent to strengthen the emergency food systems throughout Hamilton County so that every resident has access to healthy food. On behalf of the Foundation, we are happy to support the incredible impact that Teter Organic Farm has on our community and encourage others to attend this fundraiser to do the same. Because we also believe everyone deserves to eat healthy food.”

Teter Organic Farm supplies a significant portion of the fresh produce to the Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank for distribution to local pantries and food programs that serve over 32,160 food insecure people in Hamilton County.
