Gather Around What Matters.

We thoughtfully curate elevated experiences built around exceptional food, local craftsmanship, and genuine community.

More Than an Event.

We create reasons to gather.


Fire & Table began with a simple idea: bring together great food, interesting places, talented people, local businesses, and our community and create something worth slowing down for.

Every gathering is intentionally curated, from the people cooking the food and pouring the drinks to the makers, musicians, setting, and atmosphere.

Because the event isn't really the point.

The people are.

Fire & Table

Our namesake gathering.

Live fire. Local producers. Makers. Music. The Shared Table. And a community coming together around the people who raise it, grow it, make it, and cook it.

Kitchen Takeovers

Our food. Someone else's kitchen.

We partner with restaurants, breweries, chefs, and interesting spaces to create one-night-only food experiences built around collaboration.

Festivals & Gatherings

Sometimes we need a bigger table.

Seasonal festivals, markets, live-fire experiences, pop-ups, cook-offs, smokeouts, Oktoberfest, Christmas Markets, and community gatherings, each intentionally designed around its setting and purpose.

Community

Gathering together to do some good.

Fire & Table partners with local nonprofits and community organizations to use food and shared experiences to support people doing meaningful work close to home.

Good food gets people to the table.

What happens once they're there
is what matters.
