Join us at Celeste Farms for Salute to Women in Culinary & Agriculture, an inspiring afternoon celebrating the women whose passion, innovation, and leadership are shaping the future of food, farming, and hospitality.

In honor of the 2026 Year of the Female Farmer, this immersive gathering brings together female farmers, chefs, artisans, beverage producers, and makers for an unforgettable farm-to-table experience rooted in community, education, and local flavor.

Enjoy a warm Southern welcome with a signature seasonal beverage before experiencing a chef-crafted menu featuring locally sourced ingredients from female-owned and regional farms. Along the way, meet the remarkable women behind the food, explore a curated marketplace of handcrafted goods and agricultural products , and enjoy live music in the beautiful setting of Celeste Farms.

Take part in engaging educational presentations and panel discussions covering regenerative farming, farm-to-table, value-added agriculture, and the real-life experiences of women leading the way in culinary arts, farming, food entrepreneurship, and hospitality.

Every ticket offers an opportunity to connect with the people growing, creating, and inspiring change throughout our regional food system while celebrating the resilience, creativity, and collaboration that make local agriculture thrive.

Together, we'll celebrate the women cultivating stronger communities and support Root to Table's mission of strengthening local food systems, championing sustainable agriculture, and fostering meaningful connections from farm to table.
