An intimate outdoor dinner series hosted in remarkable forests, wetlands, preserves and conservation properties connected to Ducks Unlimited’s work.

Think long tables tucked beneath the trees, thoughtful lighting, chef-led courses inspired by the region, and conservation storytelling woven naturally into the evening rather than presented from a stage.

An unforgettable dinner in the landscape we’re protecting.

THE FLYWAY TABLE

What it could include:

  • Chef-led, field-to-table dinner

  • Tastings from regional food + beverage partners

  • Guided walk or property experience before dinner

  • Conversation with DU conservation experts

  • Stories showing the impact of the specific landscape

  • Limited auction or giving moment tied directly to conservation

Why it works:
It replaces the traditional ballroom fundraising environment with an experience people will talk about afterward—and connects support for DU directly to the places that support is protecting.

The key: this should feel comfortable, beautiful and unexpected, not rustic-for-the-sake-of-rustic.
