Spring Brunch

 

Looking Forward to Seeing you for
Spring Brunch 2011!

The brunch is a unique gathering of community gardeners, donors, supporters and volunteers. An amazing feast of foods is donated and prepared by more than 100 local restaurants and friends of CDCG. Each year, more than 550 people enjoy the extensive buffet offering a wide selection of hot and cold foods, plus a large variety of desserts. 

During the brunch, we feature a silent auction of items donated by individuals and local businesses, including works of art, entertainment opportunities, getaways and many great items related to gardening. Children need not be bored because there are a variety of supervised children’s activities on site.


We rely on local businesses to help make this event happen and encourage community members to support them in return.

Without the support of community members and generous businesses our programs wouldn't be the same and wouldn't reach nearly as many people in need as they do!
 

 

With strong support from the community we were able to raise more than $50,000 this year.  This money will help support the Veggie Mobile, Squash Hunger, The Produce Project, maintaining and expanding our Community Gardening program, and countless other urban greening and educational programs.

 

Thank You!
