Event Information
Our third annual Bigleaf Maple Dinner Party is back! Welcome in the maple season with a farm-to-table meal in the forest.
We are partnering with our non-profit residency, the Oregon Maple Project, and Chef Aron Warren to bring you an artisanal five course meal inspired by and using the Bigleaf Maple sap + syrup tapped from the trees at Camp Colton.
We will start the evening with a nature walk to the Sugar Shack - where the magic happens - for a Maple Syrup tasting and walkthrough of the sugaring process.
After the tastings, we will make our way to the creekside bar for a cocktail hour, following a five-course meal in the Gathering Hall.
We look forward to sharing this special evening with you!
