What a fun opening weekend at Arena Dinner Theatre for the beginning of the 2026-2027 Season!!!

What a wonderful cast and beautifully executed for optimum humor!!! It was so fun to hear two sold-out houses laughing so hard!

There are still some seats available for the next two weekends.

As always, the Menu is paired with elements within the production..."A Romanian Inpired Menu with a Dracula Twist."

We appreciate the partnership with Arena Dinner Theatre that is entering our sixth season!!!

We had a wonderful visit to Orchard Hill Farms in Kendallville, IN today to procure apples for an upcoming event.

Rick Meyer is our trusted apple advisor/provider for all of our local apple needs. If you have ever had our apple pies, dumplings, crisp, or cobbler...it's Orchard Hill Farms.

It is a quick 20 minute trip to experience the beauty and wonder of over 24,000 Apple Trees that are hand-picked and processed with love with a ton of apple sorting technology...unbelievable!

Please take a moment with your family and friends to visit!!! They have a farm store as well that includes the best Apple C***r to be found.

We appreciate the relationship!!!

Although the weather was tenuous, "Dinner on the Boulevard" went on without a hitch through the generosity of a neighborhood member, and the wonderful committee who pivoted and made the evening seamless.

Wonderful cocktail hour music was provided by Jonah Baker .

This is one of our favorite events of the year, and we appreciate the trust they place in us for a creative custom menu.

Everyone we serve receives attention at your event.

Meet Susie.

She protects the livestock .

She only has one eye, from what we know it was a birth defect.

What a wonderful canine that makes sure that one's regenerative food decisions are naturally and safely protected before it meets the table.
