Joining us for the fun but not planning to eat dinner? Let us know you’re coming! Harvest at MLC is free to attend and includes live music, face painting, children’s activities, and plenty of time to gather with our community.

Think your chili has what it takes to win the Golden Ladle? Enter the 1st Annual MLC Chili Cook-Off! There is no fee to compete, we just ask that you bring enough chili for tasting and dinner service. Your entry includes one complimentary Chili Cook-Off + Dinner pass. Additional details and competitor guidelines will be provided before the event.

Taste your way through our 1st Annual Chili Cook-Off, cast your vote for the People’s Choice winner, then come back after judging for a full bowl of your favorite chili! Includes chili tastings, one People’s Choice vote, dinner with cornbread and toppings, and a drink.

For our younger chili fans! Includes chili tastings, one People’s Choice vote, and a full bowl of their favorite chili after judging, plus cornbread, toppings, and a drink.

Not every kid is ready to brave the chili table! This kid-friendly dinner includes a hot dog, chips, apple slices, and a drink. Children are still welcome to enjoy all of the free Harvest activities.

Bring the whole crew! Includes Chili Cook-Off tasting and dinner for two adults, plus dinner for all children in your immediate household. Kids can choose either the Chili Cook-Off dinner or our hot dog dinner. Adult tasting passes each include one People’s Choice vote.

Got a favorite? Your Chili Cook-Off ticket includes one People’s Choice vote, but you don’t have to stop there! Purchase additional votes for $1 each and help your favorite chili take home the Golden Ladle. Buy one or buy twenty—we’re not here to judge your commitment to the cause. 🌶️🏆
