Creekside Growers: Field to Vase Dinner Tour

About the Certified American Grown and the Field to Vase Dinner Tour:
The American Grown Field to Vase Dinner Tour invites guests nationwide to dine in the fields of America’s most stunning flower and foliage farms. The dinner tour is a cross-country series of gatherings where seasonal blooms and foliage dazzle on beautifully designed tablescapes dressed by top U.S. floral designers, while gourmet meals are prepared by well-known farm-to-table chefs.
 
Since launching, the dinners have garnered unprecedented local and national media attention and provided a wildly successful way to showcase the heritage of America’s flower-farming families. In 2017, the tour snagged Floral Management’s Marketer of the Year Award.
 
Certified American Grown, the organizer of these dinners, is a non-profit 501c6 trade association who provides a voice for ONLY American farmers. Proceeds from the Field to Vase Dinner Tour contribute to CAG's advocacy and marketing efforts to promote American farms and preserve American floriculture heritage.
 
About the Farm:
Creekside Growers, led by owner and grower Sue Dykstra, has been cultivating a passion for growing a stronger community through local flowers since its inception in 2000. Inspired and supported by her family, Sue began her journey as a wholesale grower of perennials and annuals, laying the foundation for what would become a beloved retail garden center on the property. Around 2016, fueled by her dedication to providing fresh, locally sourced products, Sue expanded her endeavors to include a small half-acre cutting and vegetable garden. This addition not only enriched her offerings but also allowed her to connect even more deeply with her local customers, providing them with a diverse array of flowers and vegetables. Today, with over 21 years of dedicated growth, Creekside Growers boasts three-plus acres of flowers, shrubs, and grasses, with Sue's unwavering commitment to impacting the "local flower" movement in West Michigan driving the farm forward.
 
About the Designer:
Rhiannon Bosse, the visionary behind Rhiannon Bosse Celebrations, is a distinguished floral and event designer based in Rockford, Michigan. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for creating unforgettable experiences, Rhiannon is celebrated for her exquisite floral arrangements and thoughtfully curated events. Her work seamlessly blends elegance and creativity, transforming any occasion into a magical and memorable experience. Known for her commitment to quality and personalized service, Rhiannon has earned a reputation as one of Michigan's premier event designers.
 
About the Chef:
Christine Ferris, the esteemed chef and owner of Farmhouse Deli in Douglas, Michigan, is celebrated for her dedication to crafting delicious, wholesome dishes using locally-sourced ingredients. With a passion for farm-to-table cuisine, Christine has created a culinary haven that highlights the best of Michigan's seasonal produce.
