Five years ago Food Connection began with a simple but powerful mission: to collect surplus fresh meals from restaurants, caterers, and institutions and deliver them to community partners who feed those in need, in order to reduce food waste and ease the pain of immediate hunger. 

Come celebrate our five-year anniversary – and more than 230,000 meals rescued and delivered – at Pack's Tavern, where the idea of Food Connection was born. 

Enjoy a night of fun, food, drinks, and music, featuring delectable small plates from seven of our Food Connection donor chefs. You’ll hear from our Food Connection community about how we work together to make it happen, plus some surprises!
