About This Event

Join Friends of Des Moines Parks for an unforgettable evening at Dinner in the Greenhouse, a one-of-a-kind fundraising event celebrating community and supporting Des Moines' green spaces. 

Set within the City of Des Moines Greenhouse amidst a sea of poinsettias, guests will enjoy a four-course, farm-to-table dinner by local chefs Grant Gillon and Aaron Holt, expertly paired with fine wines by sommelier Sarah Pritchard.

The evening offers exquisite food, wine, and the opportunity to connect with fellow supporters of Des Moines Parks and Recreation. Proceeds directly benefit Friends of Des Moines Parks, with sponsorships funding enhancements to parks, trails, and programs.

Proceeds from Dinner in the Greenhouse directly benefit Friends of Des Moines Parks. Your generous support will help fund essential enhancements and programming for our local parks, ensure our trail system remains accessible and safe, and expand recreational offerings for all community members.
