The table is set for the summer Whim dinners at Smolak Farms in North Andover.

Smolak Farms, located in bucolic North Andover, is rolling out its Whim: A Summer Dining Experience series starting on Wednesday, July 10. The name stems from the concept - the farm has invited some of the city's most creative and talented chefs to come prepare a three-course meal using the farm’s bounty - who will crafting dishes at their whim.

The elegant yet rustic dinners are served alfresco under ant, rain for shine. Each dinner starts with a cocktail hour, followed by the sit-down communal meal (there will be a cash bar for the cocktails, wine, beer and soda desired during dinner). The stellar lineup of chefs include Mary Dumont (Harvest) on July 10, Chris Frothingham (Vine Brook Tavern) on July 17, Brian Rae (Rialto) on July 24 and Chris Coombs (Deuxave, Boston Chops, dbar) on July 31 ($69 per person; click here to order tickets; 978-682-6332).
