Dining

Our creative, experienced, and talented kitchen team is happy to work with you in the creation of a special menu, or you can simply leave the planning to us. Delicious and healthy home-cooked meals are served buffet style in our central dining room. We make many of our own fresh baked goods and desserts, and fresh fruit is always available. Sack lunches can be arranged for all-day activities. 

For mid-morning and afternoon breaks, we deliver fresh-baked pastries or fruit to your conference room. The Nature Place does not have a liquor license, but we can provide set-ups if guests choose to bring their own spirits. Our kitchen can create a variety of homemade hors d’oeuvres. We are happy to work with guests with special dietary needs. Special Dietary Meals
