Community Potluck and Pumpkin Carving, Saturday October 26

When:

Oct 26 2024 - 5:00pm - 8:00pm

Join us for the last monthly TLC Farm Community Potluck of the year!

We’ll gather in the Outdoor Kitchen at 5 pm to carve pumpkins, then transition to potluck around 6 pm. Depending on the weather, we'll eat outside around the picnic tables or in the warm yurt. We may have a bonfire! Please bring food and/or drink to share if you are able and we’ll provide dishes and utensils.

TLC Farm hosts community potlucks on the last Saturday every month but we'll be taking November and December off.

We look forward to sharing food, community with you!
