Event Details

The Harvest Dinner is Gorge Grown Food Network's only fundraising event. This feast gathers community members, local food supporters, farmers, chefs, businesses and organizational partners to celebrate the bounty in the heart of the Hood River Valley. Guests will enjoy delicious courses prepared by Executive Chef Ben Stenn of Celilo Restaurant & Bar

The evening will begin with a delightful cocktail hour at 4:00 featuring appetizers and amazing locally-crafted beer, wine, non-alcoholic beverages and live music.

Dinner will begin at 5:00 and highlight dazzling seasonal produce and savory local meat raised right here in the Gorge, served family style with an assortment of preparations including vegetarian courses. Wine tastings will be served with each course.

Sponsorships are available now. Please see ticket listings for options, call 541-490-6420 or email hannah@gorgegrown.com with questions. 

All proceeds from this event will benefit Gorge Grown Food Network. Our mission: to build a resilient and inclusive regional food system that improves the health and well-being of our community. Gorge Grown is a community-based nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting local farmers, ensuring access to healthy food for everyone, and growing a strong food system in the rural Columbia River Gorge in Oregon and Washington.

New Location for 2026: Due to an unexpected scheduling conflict, this year's Harvest Dinner will not be held at Mt. View Orchards. We are incredibly grateful for our longtime partnership with Mt. View Orchards & Grateful Vineyard and look forward to future collaborations. We're excited to share that the dinner will instead take place at The Orchard in Hood River—a beautiful venue with stunning views and a welcoming atmosphere that will make for a memorable evening. We can't wait to gather with you there to celebrate the harvest and support local food in the Gorge.



Thank you for your support! As federal funding for non-profits, local farmers and food systems has been cut or eliminated, ensuring strong and stable funding for our organization is more important than ever.
