Something different is coming to the table.

Join The Collective Private Chef & Catering and Bracy Gold Bison Ranch for Prairie to Plate, an intimate farm-to-table dining experience celebrating Ohio agriculture, locally raised bison, seasonal ingredients, and the art of gathering around the table.

Set against the backdrop of the ranch in Swanton, Ohio, guests will have the opportunity to experience the farm firsthand, get an up-close look at the bison, and learn more about where their food comes from before gathering for an elevated, chef-curated multi-course dinner.
