Graze 4 Good
Graze 4 Good is a unique fundraiser that pairs our vibrant local food community with emerging philanthropists eager to make a difference, all in support of our Fourth Generation program. This year, we’re transforming Graze 4 Good into a four-part, at-home culinary event series that supports some of our favorite, local BIPOC-owned restaurants. Proceeds will fund grants for nonprofits that support economic justice.
