Garden Gastronomy, our 2026 Garden Gala, invites garden lovers and community champions to gather where fresh ideas — and fresh ingredients — grow, celebrating the beauty, generosity, and care that sustain Springfield’s botanical treasures. Guests will enjoy thoughtfully prepared, locally sourced cuisine, craft mocktails, select beer and wine, and the simple pleasure of dining surrounded by the harvest itself.
