Join us for an inspiring Lunch Bunch featuring Angela Poen, founder and president of Community Garden Kitchen. Angela will share the inspiring story of how a simple kitchen-table conversation in 2014 grew into a vital nonprofit serving Collin County. Community Garden Kitchen provides freshly prepared, nutritious meals in a welcoming, restaurant-style setting—no paperwork, no questions asked. In addition to daily meal service, the organization maintains an on-site teaching garden, donates surplus produce to local food pantries, and is developing a culinary training program to equip young adults with valuable job skills in the food industry.
This is a great opportunity to learn more about hunger in our community and how Community Garden Kitchen is addressing it with compassion and dignity. Don’t miss this chance to connect with an organization that is making a real difference in McKinney and beyond.
Lunch Bunch Speaker Series is an informal conversation around topics of interest to members and nonmembers.
Lunch is not provided, but you are welcome to bring your own.

All are welcome. The event is free.
