Wine and Beer Sponsors Needed for Local Foods Non-profit

by Deb Hall » Tue Aug 16, 2011 10:08 pm

All,

The Food Literacy Project- a local non-profit that teaches kids about healthy food and where it comes from - is hosting it's 2nd "Field-to-Fork Dinner" on September 22nd. ( Many of you attended our great sold-out event last year). The event pairs local chefs with local farmers to create a wonderful 5- course dinner.

It's looking like Brown-Forman may not be able to donate the wine for our event, and we are looking for both a beer sponsor and a wine sponsor for this event. Great exposure to a very local foods-focused demographic, and a really great cause! If you are interested in more details, please PM me.

Thanks!
Deb

All,
Forgot to add that the wine and beer are served with dinner ( not open bar), so the volume needed is relatively small.

Thanks,
Deb

Hi Deb!

My friend Liz Dahl called yesterday-she represents Horseshoe Bend Winery. They are interested in sponsoring!

Caroline,

Yes- I know. Our Executive Director called me yesterday, very excited. :D We are working out details, but it looks like it could be an excellent match. Love to have local wines to pair with our local food, and local farmers. A sponsor means alot to us as we are a very small organization on a shoestring budget ( that delivered programming for more than 2000 youth last year); donations allow us to funnel all the money raised to our programming.

Caroline- THANKS SO MUCH if you alerted Liz to our need. Deeply appreciate the assist. :D

Deb

Still looking for a Beer sponsor- likely for one course. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks.
