SOLD OUT!

Gather with other book lovers for a seasonal three-course picnic worthy of The Secret Garden, beloved by generations and written by Knoxville’s Frances Hodgson Burnett. You’ll dine in our own secret garden, created on the stage of the Flying Anvil Theatre. Between courses, actors will read from the novel, and Laura Still of Knoxville Walking Tours will tell stories of Burnett’s childhood in Knoxville.

Chef Eva Andres, classically trained and Slow Food approved, hails from France and makes exquisite use of our local ingredients.
