Description

The Massachusetts Avenue Project (MAP) invites you to participate in our annual fundraising event: Raising the Roots for Food Equity! Join us on October 15th, 2022 from 12-4 pm at MAP’s 1.5 acre urban farm and Farmhouse & Community Training Center where we’ll gather to celebrate the end of the growing season with a farm to table tasting event featuring some of Buffalo’s most talented chefs and beverage purveyors. In collaboration with our network of local farmers, MAP challenges Raising the Roots Chefs to highlight local, seasonal produce with a signature tasting item. Farm fresh veggies will be transformed into culinary delights featuring a variety of cuisines. Sip on locally crafted beverages, while you meet the chefs and farmers, tour the farm, participate in hands-on activities, and build community around good food. Raising the Roots proudly features a diverse group of local entrepreneurs and businesses who are doing their part to support and amplify food justice work. Raising the Roots attendees will leave this event with a deeper understanding of the local food system and the importance of supporting local growers, urban agriculture, and food entrepreneurs.
