Join us for a spectacular evening and harvest dinner feast celebrating Filoli at our premier annual fundraising event!  Longtime supporters and new friends alike are invited to share in the abundance of the fall harvest with a specially curated farm-to-table dinner outdoors on the iconic Filoli estate. 

Proceeds for this annual gala fundraiser support Filoli’s mission, from the care of the historic House, magnificent Garden, and vast Natural Lands to educational programs such as Filoli’s Youth Programs that ensure the next generation has access to developing deeply rooted connections to nature.

Fund-a-Need: Youth Programs in Nature

Filoli’s youth programs build ongoing partnerships with under-resourced schools and community groups to provide free nature education for Bay Area children. Preschoolers and teens come to Filoli on multiple visits throughout the school year to connect with nature, build creative expression, and make social connections in this vibrant landscape.
