Scott Catering, will feature a menu of seasonally inspired, locally sourced ingredients.

The events kick-off with appetizers and sangria served under a 300-year-old Oak tree where guests can socialize, see old friends and meet new ones. Then, enjoy a sunset hayride tour of the farm, which includes multiple educational stops along the way.

Upon arrival at the open air dining site, which provides breathtaking, romantic views of a Chester County Century Farm, guests will enjoy a full-course menu made entirely from locally-sourced ingredients.  Mingling and table-hopping is encouraged for a guaranteed memorable time for all attendees.  Don’t forget, proceeds benefit Hives for Lives, a non-profit organization dedicated to cancer research, additional donations are welcome.
