Community Benefit Dinner: Logan Center
Granor Farm is fortunate to be rooted in a region supported by a variety of organizations devoted to improving the common good. Granor’s “Community Benefit Dinner” series connects diners with regional place-makers with Granor Farm as a philanthropic partner. Our program begins with a discussion orientated around the organization and how it connects to the region, followed by a multi-course meal showcasing ingredients grown by Granor.

In 1950, at a time when public schools did not accommodate children with disabilities, a group of parents who wanted better for their children founded a school on Logan Street in Mishawaka. Over the last 75 years, what began as a single school has grown into an organization that meets the needs of over 1,600 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) throughout their entire life spans. The Logan Center offers a wide variety of vital programming—including numerous forms of therapy, employment services, residential care, and summer camps—with locations across the South Bend-Mishawaka and Southwest Michigan regions.
This event will begin with a welcome drink and a conversation with Kristin Wier, the Logan Center's Chief Program Officer. She will discuss the Logan Center's history, their current programming and plans for the future, and how best to support their work within our communities.
Immediately after the talk, a multi-course dinner featuring crops grown by Granor will be served in our Greenhouse.
This ticket includes a $120 donation to the Logan Center that will be collected at the time of booking. Please know we are not a restaurant open to the public. All dinners are ticketed by advance reservation only and include beverage pairings. No outside alcohol is allowed.

Youth Cooking Class
Our Youth Cooking Classes develop practical culinary skills in students aged 10-14. In each two-hour class, students will create a three course dinner to take home to their families. They will be provided with recipes, ingredients, and work together to make their meals. Students will learn basic knife safety skills, how to work safely in a kitchen, what and how to taste food while cooking, leaving with the satisfaction of knowing how to make an entire meal from start to finish and the joy of sharing food with loved ones.
