Dining

The Hospitality Services Program at Touch of Nature Outdoor Education Center offers several exciting food service options to make your group's retreat, conference, meeting or special event a success. 

While our culinary workers have experience preparing meals for most dietary restrictions and take great care in food preparation, those groups who have allergies and dietary restrictions should be sure to deliver a list of names, dietary restrictions to program coordinators responsible for your program.

Ordering 

Each program coordinator will customize your event in order to fit your group needs, requests, and budget. Your final meal headcount and dietary restrictions are due three weeks before your event. Be sure to submit all requests for dietary restrictions by three weeks before your event to ensure proper purchase ordering and preparation.

If you have any questions about your order, please call TON at 618-453-1122 or email ton@siu.edu
