Yule Log Dinner & Hunt!
Friday, December 6 and Saturday, December 7 | 5:30pm – 8:30pm
Each Winter Solstice, we invite our members to the Yule Log Dinner and Hunt, where we share the bounty of another fantastic year at Riveredge and celebrate the return of winter with a member-exclusive event.
Feast on Yule Log stew made over a campfire with Riveredge Farm-grown root vegetables and sustainably raised beef. After dinner, light your candle lanterns and venture out together for a hunt for the Yule Log hidden on the Riveredge land. End the evening with the annual cutting of the log, warm drinks, carols by the campfire, and maybe even a visit from Father Winter himself.
