From 6-9PM at The Silo Cookhouse, The Elemental Table invites guests to a moveable four-course feast inspired by the natural elements — Air, Water, Earth, and Fire. Each course unfolds in a distinct setting on the farm: a sparkling appetizer on the covered bridge (Air), a tasting by the pond’s edge (Water), an entrée beneath the Mother Tree (Earth), and a fire-kissed dessert beside the bonfire (Fire). Blending culinary artistry with ritual and reflection, it’s a journey through nature’s rhythms paired with seasonal, chef-crafted dishes.

Enter the world of Appalachia’s cryptids, ancient monsters, and weirdest wilds. What separates fact and fiction? What mysteries are still waiting to be solved? What do YOU really want to believe?
