We had an absolutely magical evening out at the Ellis Nature Centre Harvest Dinner Fundraising Gala! 🌾✨
Ellis Nature Centre just outside of Lacombe is truly a beautiful place, and they do some amazing work in connecting with the community and sharing the love of nature and birds with so many! Last night was a chance to support them to continue doing this important work.
We enjoyed an incredible fresh & local farm-to-table five course meal, prepared by Milly Oak Cafe, while being serenaded by live music from local band, Flat Iron Jazz. We had the best company, spending our evening with Elders Charlene & Russell Burns, as well as the lovely ladies from Blindman Brewing. 💕
As the sun began to set, the purple martins came out, and then we ended the night listening to a great-horned owl in the surrounding trails. I can’t think of a better way to spend an evening than surrounded by birds and nature with such kind and genuine people. If you’ve never been to Ellis Nature Centre, I really encourage you to make the trip. 🥰
