Chill vibes and good eats with your closest crew, all brought to you by Open Letter Supper Club.
Intimate Friendz is a small farm-table dinner at Indie Harvesters Farm near Hempstead, Texas — Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 7:00 PM, with Chef Cole leading the kitchen.
Only 12 seats at the table. When they are gone, they are gone.
Wine pairing included. Every seat comes with the wine pairing poured alongside dinner — it is included with your seat, no extra charge and nothing more to buy.
Optional add-on: Take-Home Farm Box — $25. A box of Indie Harvesters farm produce to take home with you. The box is an add-on to a dinner seat, not admission on its own.
Every guest heads home with a Harvest Basket — a taste of the farm to take home.
Gift a seat: Intimate Friendz makes a memorable gift. Buy a seat for someone you love and give them a night at the farm table.
Three dates. Twelve seats per table. One intimate evening at a time.
Intimate Friendz is a curated farm-dinner series led by Chef Cole, Lead Chef & Main Curator, and presented through Open Letter Supper Club, with Travel Villa Kitchen / VK Capital Ventures Inc. serving as affiliate platform partner.
Hosted at Indie Harvesters Farm near Hempstead, Texas, each evening is an invitation to leave the city behind, gather at one long table, enjoy a seasonal five-course dinner, experience intentional pairings, hear poetry, meet the farm, and share a meaningful message with someone you care about.
