US (CA): Field to Vase Dinner returns to Carlsbad

The Field to Vase Dinner is returning to The Flower Fields in Carlsbad for another year of celebrating the beauty of locally grown flowers. This year's event features a farm-to-table dining experience with stunning tablescapes imagined by San Diego-based Native Poppy, all set amongst the backdrop of ranunculus at The Flower Fields.

Guests will be treated to an evening of fine dining, featuring a menu of locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, prepared by local chefs enjoyed alongside wine pairings from South Coast Winery. The evening will also include the opportunity for a tour of the Flower Fields, where guests will have the opportunity to meet flower farmer Mike A. Mellano of Mellano & Company and learn about his family's flower farming history, sustainable flower farming practices, and partnership with The Flower Fields.

"We can't think of a better place to showcase the beauty and sustainability of locally grown flowers", said Camron King, CEO and Ambassador of Certified American Grown, the proud presenter of the Field to Vase Dinner. "The Flower Fields is an incredible venue, and we are excited to be sharing the importance of American-grown flowers and supporting our local flower farmers."

"We're honored to have the Field to Vase Dinner return," said Mike A. Mellano, CEO of Mellano & Company. "We take great pride in growing the highest quality flowers possible in a sustainable manner, and we're excited to share them with guests at this special event."

In addition to the farm-to-table dining experience, guests will enjoy live music, local microbrews, a DIY flower bar, and design demonstration amongst many other aspects of the event. Guests also have the opportunity to meet and chat with the farm's growers and other industry leaders, learning about farming and producing gorgeous American-grown flowers and foliage.
