Springs Food Pantry Benefit

Fri, 06/30/2023 - 08:16

A Springs note in the June 29 print edition of The Star gave an incorrect date for E.A.T. in the Hidden Gardens, a benefit for the Springs Food Pantry. It will take place on July 8 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Corbett Estate at 464 Old Stone Highway.

While touring the maze-like gardens, guests can enjoy live music, wine from Wolffer Estate Vineyard, draft beer from Springs Brewery, hors d'oeuvres from Silver Spoon Specialties (the People Choice winner at the food pantry's 2023 Chili Chowdown), and mocktails by Cocktails & Dreams.     

The adjacent grounds of the Leiber Collection will also be open, although the museum itself will be closed.  

Advance tickets are $150 from springsfoodpantry.com, $175 at the door. All proceeds will benefit the food pantry's mission to feed community members in need.
