Tickets on Sale for Chowder 'Chowdown'

Tue, 11/02/2021 - 12:00

The Springs Food Pantry and Share the Harvest Farm are gearing up for the return of the Chowdah Chowdown, a fund-raiser for both organizations that puts local restaurants' clam chowder recipes on display.

The event will take place Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Springs Community Church, 5 Old Stone Highway. It's in a takeout format again this year due to Covid-19. 

"Whether you take your chowder home, take it to the beach, or take it to a friend, supporting two local charities couldn't be easier," the organizations said in an announcement, "or more delicious!"

Tickets cost $40 and include four 12-ounce servings of chowder, rolls from Newlight Breadworks, a 16-ounce beer from Springs Brewery, utensils, and a reusable insulated bag. Tickets can be purchased online at this link.

Among the many restaurants and food stores taking part are Townline BBQ, Almond, Clam Bar, Breadzilla, Sen, the Seafood Shop, Silver Spoon Specialties, Baron's Cove, and the Amagansett Seafood Store.
