More about the fundraiser from the Institute for Applied Ecology:

Our goal for this event is to cover food costs for our education program - Forest Bound, our native plant immersion and conservation skill building program designed for high school aged youth in the forests around the Santa Fe area. To make our program more accessible, we want to be able to provide lunches and snacks to our participants free of cost. In the past, because of our limited funds, we have only been able to provide lunches once a week. During the program, participants spend the day outside, oftentimes engaging in levels of activity and exposure to the outdoors that they are not used to. Making sure that we have enough snacks and lunch to keep them fueled throughout the day is critical for us to create meaningful and positive experiences outdoors.

This event is free + open to the public / 21 + to enjoy adult beverages.
