May 30, 2026
5 pm
Immerse yourself in nature during our annual Dinner at the Ranch fundraiser, a unique "adult field trip" experience.
The evening invites guests to participate in hands-on nature-based education before gathering in the Grove for a magical farm-to-table dinner under the stars.
Your support is vital for expanding Connolly Ranch's life-changing programs and outdoor classrooms.
An evening dedicated to supporting the Ranch's mission.
Highlights & Activities:
Adult Field Trip Experience: Guests experience the Ranch "just like the kids," participating in hands-on nature-based education in the Farm, Garden, and WildSpaces. The only-ever adult field trip on the Ranch!
Farm-to-Table Dinner: Attendees gather in the Grove to enjoy a farm-to-table dinner curated and prepared by Chef Ryan Scott, in the Oak & Bay Laurel Grove, and the stars.
Fundraising: The event is a critical opportunity to raise funds, with proceeds supporting the expansion of outdoor classrooms, mindfulness programs, and farm-to-table offerings.
Support Opportunities: The evening features multiple ways to support the mission, including a Farm-to-Table Silent Auction (offering unique Connolly Ranch and Napa Valley experiences) and a "Raise A Paddle" opportunity to directly fund specific goals.
Nature and Wellness Focus: The event encourages attendees to roll up their sleeves, raise a glass to outdoor nature-based wellness, and tap into their inner child and love for the natural world.
