“Grange Within Range” hosts “Soil to Soul” dinner at Tohono Chul Garden Bistro (MENU)

The “Grange within Range” dinner series gets closer to home as Tohono Chul Garden Bistro crafts the “Soil to Soul” menu from 5:30 – 8:30 p.m. on Friday, November 16.

This dinner will feature flavor profiles from local purveyors within a 50-mile radius, which are paired with beer from Button Brew House. Other local purveyors joining the dinner are Arevalos Farms, Forbes Meat Co., Green Valley Pecan Company, Malcons Honey, and Peace Love and Smoked Cheese.

Last month’s “Chiles, Chocolate & Chemistry” dinner was a hit and drew in a crowd to the bistro and 49-acre park. This is also your last time to enjoy the three-part dinner series — for now — as it comes to a conclusion for the season.

Tickets are $75 per person, which includes tax and service. The cocktail hour begins at 5:30 p.m. and dinner at 6:30 p.m.
