Chehalis Land Trust Riverside Gala 2024 @ Chehalis River Discovery Trail

Our annual fundraising Gala at the riverside will happen Saturday, August 3rd to celebrate 30 years of conservation as a Land Trust.

We will have music by Huckleberry, various refreshments, snacks (or perhaps a small wrap), and desserts.

Guest speakers will tell you how conserved lands and riparian forest help cool the Chehalis River waters, which support salmon survival. The work of the Land Trust and your help will lead to more conserved lands, wetlands, and forests.

Conservation and protection of natural places provide habitat for fish, waterfowl, birds, mammals, and many other species.

The auction is always fun so bring your cash or card; you don’t want to miss that special object or painting!

Tickets will be $25 per person (adults only please). You may purchase 6 tickets to share a table with your friends or family ($150). The maximum number of guests will be 60, so don’t delay!

Yes We CAN! Preservation Dinner (hosted by Nature Nurture Farmacy) @ Twin Cities Senior Center
Mar 1 @ 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm

Join us for a lovely potluck celebrating local food grown and preserved by hard-working farmers and community members. Music by Prairie Fire.

Our preservation dinner aims to complement the lively fall harvest dinners that happen in the community. In late winter as we emerge from the cold, dark weather, we can remember the fruits of our labor as we savor preserved goods from our abundant summer and fall harvests. We can celebrate the continuation of the cycle of life that connects us all. We want to offer an evening to showcase local food, nutrition programs, and farmer opportunities. Farming is connection to community eating, health, and environmental sustainability. Please come and see what is happening in our community and share what you may be doing as well.

Calling all producers, growers, grocers, markets, local food banks, food access programs, chefs & restaurants focusing on local produce, community & school gardens, folks who simply love delicious food grown with heart. Kids are welcome. Join us, and let’s unite our missions!

Tickets are free with suggested donation; registration required.

This event supports Nature Nurture Farmacy’s Project: Food Is Medicine.
