Rock Bottom Ranch

Join ACES at Rock Bottom Ranch for a special summer evening celebrating our land, farmers, and local, sustainable agriculture.

Each Farm to Table Dinner features a thoughtfully prepared four-course menu highlighting ingredients grown at the ranch, paired with regional beer, wine, and cocktails. The evening begins with a guided walk through the farm, offering a closer look at our regenerative agriculture practices, followed by dinner and the flavors of the ranch in a setting that reflects the beauty and abundance of the season.

Farm to Table 2026 Dates:

Thursday, July 30 – Featured Chef, CRAVE

Friday, July 31 – Featured Chef, CRAVE

The July dinners will be reimagined and will take place out in the field at Rock Bottom Ranch, offering a more immersive, open-air experience. Guests will be seated at tables in the field, with dinner served family-style on shared platters. In case of inclement weather, dinner will move beneath the pole barn.

Thursday, August 20 – Featured Chef, Elevated Table

Friday, August 21 – Featured Chef, Elevated Table

These evenings offer ACES’ more traditional Farm to Table experience—an elegant, plated dinner under the pole barn at Rock Bottom Ranch.
