There's something special about knowing where your food comes from.

We're grateful to work with Common Ground Producers and Growers, who grow produce on their own farm and collaborate with other local farmers throughout the region.

Their fresh, locally grown ingredients are featured in Envision Bistro specials and used throughout our culinary programs, giving students valuable hands-on experience with seasonal products and local sourcing. 🌱🍅

Make sure to come in and try the beets with hot honey and feta this week!

Introducing… Chef Spotlight Dinner Series: Chef Keegan Courtright: The Wayfarer

Now, he’s bringing those experiences to the table through an intimate dining experience designed around conversation, connection, and communal dining.
