This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
Dine on wonderful foods from our local farms as you celebrate a season of growing, harvesting and friendship. Chef Jay Ryan cooks up a meal containing delicious ingredients from many of the Community Farmers Market at Chehalis’ vendors.
The dinner is buffet-style. A no-host bar is also available, and there will be a dessert auction and silent auction. Proceeds from the event benefit the Community Farmers Market.
