A quarterly dinner series of nature, delicious food, and connection

June 8, September 14, and December 2, 2023
IslandWood was built explicitly for discovery — so that children, educators, and community members could discover more deeply the natural world around them. With our Dine & Discover series, we invite you to discover!
Discover our trails, treehouses, canopy tower, and suspension bridge. Discover something about your community and maybe yourself.
Join us on our Bainbridge Island campus for the perfect evening of live music, a beautiful meal, and an optional hike through our 250 acres of trails. What a delicious way to support IslandWood’s innovative environmental education programs. We only host this event four times a year, so we hope you can make it!

Dinner will be prepared by Chef Jim White and his team, who are passionate about bringing sustainably sourced foods and thoughtful dining experiences to students and adults alike. Our meals are inspired by the seasons, featuring locally sourced ingredients as much as possible.

Our June menu is available here.
Dinner is served family-style at community tables. If you’re joining a large group (8 people or more), please specify your group when purchasing tickets and we’ll be sure to reserve seats together for your group.

IslandWood acknowledges that we live and work on the ancestral land of the Coast Salish people, who have been stewards of this region's land and waters since time immemorial, and who continue to protect these lands and waters for future generations, as promised by the Point Elliott Treaty of 1855, the Treaty of Point No Point of 1855, and the Treaty of Medicine Creek of 1854.
While the majority of our work takes place on Suquamish (suq̀ʷabš) and Duwamish (dxʷdɐwʔabʃ) land, we also conduct programs on the land of the Snohomish (sduhúbʃ), Puyallup (spuyaləpabš), Muckleshoot (buklshuhls), Skokomish (sqoqc’bes), and S’Klallam (nəxʷsƛ̕ay̕əm) peoples.
