Harvest against Hunger 2022

On October 1st from 5-8pm, join us at our signature fall fundraising event, Harvest Against Hunger, in partnership with College of DuPage. Held at the Waterleaf Restaurant and Culinary Center in Glen Ellyn, this casual, interactive event celebrates the harvest of the season with the following:

• A creatively curated small plate meal showcasing local farms’ seasonal produce, inspired by favorite recipes from our GardenWorks clients;
• Local brews and mead from Two Hound Red (Glen Ellyn) and Standard Meadery (Villa Park);
• Cocktail/mocktail and cooking demonstrations by the chefs and faculty of COD;
• Live music and tours of the culinary campus and urban growing spaces
• Stories of GardenWorks' impact on food security and access within our region
• A parting gift of locally sourced farm product samples

Join us in celebrating the ways The GardenWorks Project continues to provide food growing opportunities to improve food equity, food security, and reduce food waste within our region. Together, we can expand our reach and impact and improve the well being of our communities, our environment, and nourish ourselves and our neighbors in need.

All proceeds benefit The GardenWorks Project's spring 2023 programs and participants.

Ticket are limited, so get yours now! Choose the “client sponsorship with admission” ticket option to enable four GardenWorks clients to attend the event.
