Gathering Table at Newfound Community Center

We're excited to continue our Gathering Table events in collaboration with our local Community Centers. On September 18th, we'll be hosting a dinner at the Newfound Community Center. The Equal Plates Project will be cooking and serving dinner with a focus on locally sourced ingredients. 

6:00 - 7:00 - Welcome Drinks and Snacks 
7:00 - 8:30 - Dinner and Programming

These dinners are part of the broader effort of the Leicester Food Coalition to gather the community around local food and continue the conversation of rural resilience. You can expect a casual and delicious event and a chance to connect with folks in the rural Buncombe County community (Leicester, Newfound, Alexander, Sandymush, and beyond).

Tickets are priced at $20 because we want the event to be accessible to everyone and the Leicester Food Coalition has grant funding to support local food initiatives. If the ticket price is a barrier, then please email terri@utopianseed.org to discuss options.  

The event space has a strict capacity and tickets are limited. 

If you can’t join us Friday, we will be gathering on Saturday September 19th from 11-1pm for a Community Brunch, freely gifted and welcoming to the whole community.
