The Abode offers healthy meals which include organic produce from our farm during the spring, summer and fall. If some or all of the participants in your event have special dietary needs, we can accommodate the most common special diets, such as wheat and/or dairy free, gluten free and protein rich. If we are unable to fulfill your specific dietary needs, one of our guest houses contains a kitchen where food can be stored, refrigerated or lightly cooked. We will do our best to serve what your group needs. Special dietary requirements need to be communicated to the Abode 30 days before an event.
