Join us for an unforgettable evening of conscious eating at Tohono Chul, a spectacular venue known as one of the World’s Great Botanical Gardens. This unique dining experience, part of the AZ Good Food Forum + Expo aims to connect you to your food, the land, the earth, your body, and even the cosmos.

Under the guidance of two naturopathic doctors, Dr. Jasmine May and Dr. Angela Wojtowicz, you will embark on a journey through the flavors and stories of our locally grown ingredients. As you savor each dish, you will hear from the growers about their regenerative and organic farming practices, deepening your connection to the food on your plate.
