Spring Feast at Slide Ranch: Saturday, May 16th, 2026

We’ll start with a happy hour on the bluffs, where you can sip local wine or a seasonal cocktail, enjoy farm-fresh bites, and take in sweeping ocean views accompanied by the serenade of live music floating over the Pacific  

As conversation flows and the evening light softens, we’ll gather in our Farm to Table Teaching Center, overlooking the Pacific and alive with spring florals. Chef Lily will prepare a vibrant, multi-course meal that celebrates the flavors of the season - featuring wine pairings and fresh produce from our gardens plus ingredients sourced from local farms.

With just 30 seats at the table, this special evening invites you to slow down, savor the bounty of early spring, and share in the spirit of Slide Ranch.

Cost: $225/person

Tickets will only be sold online until 11:59pm, Wednesday 5/13/2026. Advance registration is required.

What to Bring 

Bring layers!  Dinner will be indoors but, barring rain, we’ll be outside for happy hour. Please dress according to the weather and remember to wear comfortable walking shoes, as the bluff happy hour hour and dining location are a brief walk from our parking area, on uneven terrain. It will likely be chilly in the evening.
 

What can I expect for the evening?  Menu details?

Our chef designs menus with the freshest, locally sourced and seasonal ingredients, including items from Slide Ranch. The full menu itself will be a surprise. We know you’ll love it.

The evening includes cocktails and snacks on the bluffs. Then, guests will be seated in our Farm to Table Teaching Center with a farm-focused menu featuring produce at their peak ripeness.

We’ll wrap up by 8:30pm.
