Generous Helpings Thursday, May 16
We are excited to announce the return of Generous Helpings on Thursday, May 16, 2013 at 5:30 pm at the Nashville Farmers’ Market. The evening will feature tastings of signature appetizers, entrees and desserts from more than 30 locally owned restaurants along with complimentary fine wines and beer selections from local distributors.
Online ticket sales are now closed for this event. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door for $50.
“Nashville wouldn’t be Nashville without so many talented chefs and restaurant entrepreneurs,” said Jaynee Day, President & CEO of Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee. “We are honored to work alongside so many individuals and businesses to raise awareness of hunger issues in Tennessee and look forward to a fun-filled evening with our friends, supporters and the community.”
The event is sponsored by Kroger and all proceeds will provide much needed funding for Middle Tennessee's Table, our grocery rescue program. The program rescues and redistributes nearly 5 million pounds of food from more than 200 grocery stores annually including produce, dairy, protein and non-perishable food items.
