Colfax CA Community Garden Event: A Taste of Togetherness

As twilight blankets the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, something truly special is taking place in Colfax, CA. On the veranda of the beloved Sierra Vista Community Center, guests will gather for an intimate Farm-to-Table Dinner Fundraiser — an evening curated with purpose, passion, and local pride.

While this event is not organized by the Historic Colfax Downtown Association, we’re proud to amplify and celebrate this incredible initiative hosted by the Colfax Outfielders’ Community Garden — a true gem in our community.


An Evening to Savor: Locally Sourced, Lovingly Prepared

Guests at this exclusive gathering will be treated to a stunning three-course meal crafted from locally sourced ingredients. Each course, prepared with seasonal produce from nearby farms, will be thoughtfully paired with regional wines, creating a dining experience that highlights the agricultural richness of our region.

And while the food takes center stage, the ambiance will enchant. Live music sets the mood as the sun dips behind the mountains, painting the sky in hues of gold and lavender.


City Support: A $500 Grant Plants Seeds of Growth

In a significant display of support, the City of Colfax City Council recently voted to approve a $500 grant dedicated to the Colfax Outfielders’ Community Garden Fundraiser. This funding ensures continued access to tools, seeds, and soil amendments needed to keep the garden thriving.

This vote of confidence from city leadership represents a growing awareness of the importance of grassroots efforts and green spaces in our community’s well-being.

Celebrating Colfax’s Agricultural Heritage

Did you know that Colfax has deep agricultural roots that date back to the late 1800s? Once a bustling hub along the Transcontinental Railroad, the town played a key role in the movement of produce, timber, and livestock throughout California.

Historic crops included grapes, apples, pears, and even hops, with nearby homesteads and ranches sustaining generations of families. The Colfax Outfielders’ Community Garden is a modern-day homage to that legacy — breathing new life into our soil and traditions.

Why This Event Matters for Colfax CA

At its heart, this fundraiser is about more than just good food. It’s about fostering a sense of place, belonging, and responsibility. The benefits ripple far beyond the garden beds:

• Empowering local volunteers and youth
• Promoting healthy eating and sustainability
• Bringing neighbors together in shared purpose

Each dollar raised helps grow not only plants, but people.
