Thirty of Colorados best food, wine and beer producers are providing all the food and drink, and absolutely everything that will be served and poured is from the Centennial State, promises Will Jones, public relations director for the Gardens. In fact, some of the ingredients will even be harvested from the DBGs own vegetable plot. The chefs will provide copies of their recipes, and producers will be on hand to field questions about sustainable food options.
Tickets, which help benefit the Colorado Chefs Association Education Fund and the Chatfield Gardens, are $100 per person, or $150 for VIP packages, which give you access to a private waitstaff and bartender but youll still need to pack a picnic basket with plates, napkins, silverware and glasses, because this is a zero-waste affair.
