Soup’s on — Chef’s Edition!

Join Expressions Pottery Workshop and Friend to Friend Food Pantry on Saturday, October 5th, 11:30am-1:30pm at the East Granby Community/Senior Center.

This year they’re serving delicious soup prepared onsite by Chef Stefan Drago, East Granby resident and owner of Drago’s Kitchen, 7 Mill Pond Drive, Granby.

The fall fundraiser includes new surprises in addition to favorite traditions of this

yearly event:

• Join them for the Doreen’s Nature Trail pre-event hike, meeting at the EG Community/Senior Center parking lot at 10:30.
• Festivities begin indoors at 11:30 at the EG Community/Senior Center. Choose a beautiful, handmade bowl, enjoy delicious soup, purchase Thanksgiving-themed raffle tickets for a chance to win a fresh holiday turkey, locally made pies or a TV! Enjoy live folk music performed by Allendale Rose. (You may want to stagger your arrival as the event fills up fast at 11:30. No worries though — they may run out of seating for a bit, but they’ve never run out of soup or beautiful hand made bowls.)
• Then, take a stroll (or drive) to Expressions Pottery Workshop to peruse the handmade pottery for early holiday shopping, enter the FREE raffle to win a $50 Expressions Gift Card, indulge in a sweet treat and pick up a complimentary pumpkin (courtesy of Peter L. Brown Company) before you leave!
• The Friend to Friend Thrift Shop will also be open for your treasure-hunting pleasure from 9:00am to 3:00 pm at 32 Spoonville Road in East Granby

Tickets are $25.00 pre-purchase (www.friendtofriendeg.com) or $30.00 at the door. (They’ll offer a $5.00 soup only ticket for children 12 and under, available for purchase only at the event.)
