Six years ago the idea for the first Field 2 Table was presented with "wouldn't it be a great event ..."
With the sudden downturn in the economy, the first Field 2 Table had to be cancelled, but the team was committed to make it happen. In 2009, we started small, and steadily Field 2 Table has grown into the specialty event it is today. From farms, an orchard, a ranch and this year’s English Garden, we have witnessed the commitment to sustainability and how it impacts our community. We see sustainability throughout the industry with restaurants, chefs, hotels and venues all recognizing the value of green events. KCMPI was among the first to offer such an event.
This year, sustainability is historic in the unique venue. The gardens are nestled in a very special valley rich in history. It is known as the Triple Creek Valley, where Coffee Creek and Wolf Creek come together to form the beginning of the Blue River. This sweet little valley is what the area called Blue Valley was named after. It was also the original campgrounds of the Black Bob Indian Chief, and the last reservation to close in Kansas. The Kelly Gallery has only been the second owner since it belonged to the Indians. Its mission is to preserve the natural beauty of the valley that is rich with wild edibles, medicinal plants and wildlife that are abundant in this valley. Its artwork, photography and simple celebrations always reflect a passion for the peace and tranquility nature represents.
As we celebrate the fifth anniversary of Field 2 Table, we welcome you back, for those of you who are faithful to attend.
For those of you who have not yet experience Field 2 Table, we encourage you to join us, Thursday, September 19, 2013 at The Kelly Gallery in Overland Park, Kansas.
Advance reservations are required. Dinner reservations are $75 per person and include transportation, a four-course meal with beverage, entertainment, all gratuities and networking.
