Tara Firma Farms in Petaluma will host a singular, midsummer night’s experience featuring world-class ballet and farm-to-table cuisine as the JAD Experience presents LUNAE for a six-night run this July.

Co-founded by dancer and choreographer Julia Adam and Aaron Lucich of Tara Firma Farms, the intimate event, limited to 100 guests each evening, is meant to foster connection to art, nature, and one another.

The evening begins with cocktails that usher in the golden hour, punctuated by the farm’s sweeping pastoral views. Following is a long-table dinner featuring ingredients from Tara Firma and nearby farms from the team at Petaluma’s Pearl restaurant.

Performances from 5:30-10 p.m., July 17-19 and 24-26. $200-$350.
