Interact with 2026 Georgia Grown Chef Christian Bell, Oreatha’s at The Point, and a Georgia pecan grower as you enjoy four tasting courses with wine in the Edible Garden Outdoor Kitchen. 

The Edible Garden Outdoor Kitchen fosters plant-to-plate connections, provides learning opportunities in seasonal eating and sustainable cultivation, and highlights the important relationships between local chefs and growers. In keeping with this, we proudly present the Georgia Grown Dinner Series.

As a unique collaboration with the Georgia Department of Agriculture, each dinner in the series is presented by a Georgia Grown Chef and focuses on one or two of Georgia’s important crops or agricultural categories. As an added bonus, each dinner features a local farmer who can explain more about farming in Georgia and answer your questions. Interact with the chef-grower team as you enjoy four tasting courses with wine in the Edible Garden Outdoor Kitchen.
