    • Join 21 Acres’ Chef, Asako Sullivan, to celebrate fall and our beloved northwest salmon with an amazing Salmon Homecoming Dinner. Enjoy a locally sourced meal paired with salmon-safe wine, Native American music, and education at this intimate evening celebration of our returning native species.

    We’ll begin the evening with a cocktail hour featuring salmon-safe wine while you enjoy the enchanting music of local Native American storyteller and flutist, Paul Cheoketen Wagner, and chat with our partners, Mid Sound Fisheries, about their Sammamish River habitat restoration project. The cocktail hour will be followed by a dinner featuring the best of local fruits, vegetables, and salmon paired with the delectable organic, biodynamic wines of Wilridge Winery. The dinner menu is well suited for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

    An intrinsic part of our Pacific Northwest food culture, salmon are also a critical part of a healthy ecosystem and a key indicator of the impact of climate change. As we celebrate their return, we must also examine what we can do to protect the habitat and future of wild salmon runs. Mid Sound Fisheries joins 21 Acres to provide ways you can help maintain a healthy, vital habitat for the Puget Sound’s iconic native species.

    This opportunity to enjoy a beautifully presented, local menu prepared by the talented 21 Acres team, and also learn about salmon habitat restoration on the Sammamish River from our partners at Mid Sound Fisheries, will sell out quickly. Early purchase assures a seat at the table and a discount. All proceeds go to support 21 Acres local food and environmental education programs.

    This is a 21+ event.

    Cocktail hour 6-7pm, Dinner served 7pm
