Raisin' The Roof at the Farm

 Registration is closed for this event
Skidaway Farms is pleased to announce the construction of Skidaway Audubon Pavilion in Valley Crest Square. We've raised the funds for the foundation and it will be completed soon. Now it's time to raise the rest of the funds so we can Raise The Roof over the pavilion! We're having a party!

 

Raisin’ the Roof at Skidaway Farms
Join us on April 28th from 6 to 8 pm
 
Since the opening of the farm in the spring of 2011, over 250 farmers have been passionately planting, tending, weeding and eating the fruits of their gardens. The farm benefits not only the farmers, but our friends and neighbors; folks are sharing their tomatoes, broccoli, lettuce and the ever popular and abundant eggplant!  
 
For everyone in The Landings, the farm offers a weekend stroll to see the bounty of the earth, the beauty of the flowers, and to show off the best of the south to out of town friends visiting Savannah.  We are so ‘on the map’ of places to see. Just last week we had a couple from Chicago touring Savannah who had heard about Skidaway Farms and drove from downtown to see the magnificence we all have on our island. The Landings Company also regularly shows off this feature to prospective home buyers.
 
Through the dedication of countless and often silent volunteers, the farm has moved from a dream to a reality and through the financial generosity of the entire Skidaway Island community, we were able to secure the funds needed to build the farm. We are now asking our community to help us raise the funds for the final phase of Skidaway Farms:
 
The Audubon Pavilion in ValleyCrest Square
 
Our Roof Raisin’ Party will be April 28, rain date April 29
To raise the funds needed to for completion of the pavilion.
 
Skidaway Audubon Pavilion will be more than a source of shade for the farmers from the summer heat. Imagine having the opportunity to have a shin-dig in the garden, a garden club meeting, special lectures, maybe even a blue grass get-together. We are building yet another asset for our community that makes us so unique. All donors will be acknowledged based on their level of support on a permanent plaque in the pavilion.
 
Patron $1,000+  Benefactor $500 - $999
Supporter $250 - $499 Friend $100 - $249
 
Raisin’ the Roof will include appetizers, beer and wine, and entertainment.  Ticket prices are $25.00 per person in advance, which may be purchased at SkidawayFarms.net or by check made payable to Skidaway Farms and mailed to the Association.  Door price is $30.00 per person.  While this price will help offset the cost of this fundraiser, we ask everyone to please consider a tax deductible contribution over and above the admission price. (Payable to Skidaway Audubon and mailed to the Association.)  We will also have a raffle, so do not forget to bring your checkbook. For more information, please inquire at
