The Summer Table
A Seasonal Gathering for Women
A few unhurried hours to slow down, savor simple pleasures, and remember what it feels like to exhale.
Founders Gathering at The Farm at Rivendell

Welcome to The Summer Table
So many of us spend our days caring for others, carrying responsibilities, and moving quickly from one thing to the next. The Summer Table is an invitation to pause for a little while and enjoy nourishment, conversation, and rest.
Join us for a relaxed midday gathering at our family farm, The Farm at Rivendell, nestled in the countryside of Middle Tennessee. You’ll be welcomed indoors around the table in our home and invited into a gentler rhythm for a few unhurried hours.
We’ll share a seasonal meal, freshly baked bread, meaningful conversation, and simple invitations to slow down, reflect, and enjoy the beauty of an unhurried afternoon together.

Meet Your Hostess
Hello, I’m Bethany Thomson—registered dietitian nutritionist, Christian life coach, and founder of Ingrained Living.
For many years, one of my favorite things has been gathering friends around the table to share a meal, linger in conversation, and enjoy the gift of time together.
The Summer Table was born from a simple desire: to offer women a beautiful space to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy a gentler rhythm for a few hours.
It would be my joy to save a place for you around our table at The Farm at Rivendell.
