Join us on Sunday, September 14, 2025, for Dinner in the Forest at Owl’s Hill Nature Sanctuary. This unique outdoor event celebrates the beauty and serenity of Owl's Hill, featuring cocktails, farm-to-fork fare, and more.
Sponsorship Opportunities Available!
Dinner in the Forest is our annual, exclusive dinner event. This one-of-a-kind event has limited seating and sells out quickly. Our event sponsors receive advance ticket opportunities, before tickets go on sale to the public. Your sponsorship reserves your tickets for the event, as well as ensures the continued excellence of our facility and programs. With thousands of members, patrons, students and families participating in Owl’s Hill’s programs every year, your sponsorship shows our community your support and commitment to preserving one of Middle Tennessee's most beautiful habitats.
By sponsoring Dinner in the Forest, your gift provides:
- A protected home for more than 2,000 species of local flora and fauna that thrive in the hills, forests, creeks, ponds, and meadows of our 300-acre sanctuary.
- Nature-based programming such as Marshmallow Hikes, Owl Day, and Knee-High Naturalist
- Educational enrichment programs for school field trips, outreach and teacher training
- TN Naturalist Training, bluebird nest box building, creative writing workshops
- Critical national wildlife research programs for bird banding, bird counts, butterfly counts, and monarch larvae studies.
A "magical outdoor adventure."
