Veggie City Wrap-up Dinner!

After a couple weeks of planning, and re-planning, and re-planning…we were finally ready for the big night.  Slideshow. Check. Veggie City Banner. Check. Food Cooking. Check. Now we just need the people to show up.  Well the night finally arrived, the end of the year wrap-up dinner.  We were very lucky to be able to share the night with one of our biggest partners, The London Training Centre.  Along with their local food skills class we were able to provide our shareholders and some community members with a great night filled with stories, laughs and best of all some delicious locally grown food!! This event was a great time to celebrate what a successful year we had at Veggie City.  All of our youth were in attendance to share their experience with the eager listeners. Throughout the night we were able to gain the interest of many of those in attendance who were learning about Veggie City for the very first time, and even had people sign up to be shareholders for next year. The main objectives of the Veggie City project was to bring people together to support the community, youth and locally grown vegetables. The wrap up dinner was an excellent example of all of those things and  really showcased the hard work and success of the program! We look forward to the spring and seeing everyone again at the kickoff  BBQ for year 2!!.
