Los Angeles, CA – Certified American Grown is excited to launch the 2023 award-winning Field to Vase dinner tour dates and locations. Spanning the country and various farms the American Grown Field to Vase Dinner Tour, brings a unique experience for guests to dine among the exquisite fields of America’s most stunning flower and foliage farms.  The tour is an exclusive and immersive experience welcoming guests onto farms to enjoy the beauty, learn about flower and foliage farming firsthand, and build a community of like-minded American Grown fans. Experiences and tablescapes are imagined and created by top U.S. floral designers and include dazzling American grown blooms and foliage. Coupling the feast for the eyes and soul provided by the farms and designs, artfully prepared multiple course meals are presented by well-known, local farm-to-table chefs, and accompanied by wine, micro-brewed beers and good company. Through the accompanying farm tour and design demonstrations, guests will make a further hands-on personal connection to the art and science of flower farming and the importance of America’s floral landscape and heritage as part of U.S. agriculture. Guests, seated at community tables, will share lively conversation in the company of newfound friends building passion for preserving and supporting American Grown farms. While enjoying the seasonal meal, guests will be drawn to the botanical beauty of petals, branches, foliage, vines, buds, and berries – all arranged to bring multi-sensory pleasure to the dining experience. The attention is on the farmers, their flowers, their beautiful farms and on the floral designs they inspire.   “Our American flower and foliage community is so robust and the Field to Vase dinner tour is such a special and unique way to experience the bounty grown on some of our farms,” says Camron King, CEO & Ambassador for Certified American Grown Flowers. “Attendees have the good fortune to build community, have a once in a lifetime floral and foliage experience, and celebrate our homegrown community in such an incredible way through this tour.”
