DAY AT ANAVO

Advocating for healthier, more localized farm systems [...] guests walk away with a deeper appreciation of small farm life and ethical meat production.

As featured in

A Savory Event
for Animal Lovers & Foodies


A handful of delicious times a year we gather to break homemade bread, explore biodynamic wines + hyper-local cheeses, and share a meal made with 100% local ingredients (including meats, chicken, fish), in addition to sampling the best “alt protein dishes” from around the globe.

A Day at Anavo

Schedule

A Day at Anavo • Schedule •


3:00:  A warm welcome with biodynamic wine tasting, fresh goat cheese made on site (and a few surprisingly delicious vegan cheeses) and goat croquet - where we try to avoid hitting the goats (and sheep + alpacas) with the ball while still getting it through the wickets. Winner takes home a truckle of goat cheese.

4:30:  Presentation on why Regenerative Agriculture is the solution for many of the world’s woes, and how it benefits YOU. Q&A amongst wildflowers and our pasture-raised chickens. After, interact with our sweet chicks and learn about backyard chicken keeping.

6:00:  Al Fresco 4-Course Farm to Table Dinner prepared by a renowned Chef. Hyper local, obviously organic, and served up the Anavo way: 30% of your plate is high quality, humanely-raised savory animal protein.

OF NOTE:

  • Vegan options (and samplings) are available for any or all of courses. Thanks to our partnership with Species Unite we’re able to provide sexy “alt protein” products yet to hit the market 

7:30:  Fireside chat with warm, homemade cider and Native American acoustic musicians.

8:15:   A brief closing ceremony to commit one positive change to your life.

Meet Our Founder


Anavo Farm Founder Jen Boulden is a successful eco-preneur with an impressive track record in making fringe concepts mainstream as she did with green living through her media company, Ideal Bite (which was purchased by Disney).

Having run the Anavo farm-stay B-n-B for the past 5 years, Jen saw firsthand how people shift when interacting with farm animals and rethinking their food choices. Learning where your protein comes from – not just tomatoes! - is a game changer to your palette and the world alike.

Get on the Waitlist


“Farm to table” is all the rage, but when can you eat exquisite, hyper-local dishes on the farm itself, with the animals surrounding you… complete with a goat nibbling your pant leg?

This is an exclusive event that happens just 6 times a year for animal-loving foodies craving a delicious life-changing experience.

Study nature. Love Nature. Stay close to nature. It will never fail you.”
