Growing Healthy Kids
One Garden At A Time

It began back in 2011, when Slow Food East End joined with the Joshua Levine Memorial Foundation to host a fundraiser to honor the legacy of young farmer Josh Levine. Since then we have hosted A Moveable Feast, an annual Spring event to raise money to help support Edible School Gardens.

These gardens have brought joy and learning opportunities to thousands of children across the East End. But school gardens don’t just grow vegetables. School gardens grow healthy kids, one garden at a time! Now garden-grown vegetables are beginning to be served in school cafeterias, wellness and healthy eating are being taught in our schools, and chefs are coming into the classroom to teach cooking – all because of the support of the wonderful food community here on the East End and supporters like you.

Please join us for A Moveable Feast at Dodds & Eder on March 25th to help us sustain and grow more than 25 local school gardens across the East End. You’ll have the opportunity to meet and chat with some of the East End’s best chefs and beverage purveyors, while moving from station to station and feasting on their latest culinary creations. There will be some rockin’ music that will get you up on your feet and the silent auction featuring items donated from local farms, fishermen, restaurants, vineyards and merchants on the East End and beyond. It is the best of the East End…. all in one place!

About Sam Kass
