Savor the flavors of the season during this unique Garden Week experience inside the Historic Depot Museum Rail Car. Enjoy four chef-inspired garden-to-table small plate tastings featuring fresh garden vegetables, paired with a refreshing beverage. This intimate culinary experience celebrates locally inspired ingredients and the connection between gardens and the table.

Following lunch, continue your Garden Week adventure with a Caladium Tablescape Showcase. Learn how to create beautiful indoor and tabletop arrangements using caladiums and complementary plants as an alternative to traditional cut flowers. Experts from Floral Art Co. will be on hand to share tips and assist guests in designing their own displays. Participants are welcome to admire the creations at no cost, and those wishing to take one home may do so with a suggested donation.

The showcase will be held under covered tents, with the option to move indoors at the museum if needed.

Cost:
Garden-to-Table Tastings: $10 (includes four tastings and one beverage; pay on site)
Caladium Tablescape Showcase: Free to participate; optional donation for take-home arrangements
