Friday Night Suppers
posted April 24, 2008
Friday Night Suppers 2009
The suppers are in the rink house, 6 to 7.30 pm. There is always soup, a vegetarian or vegan entrée, a meat entrée, a side dish, a salad, and dessert. Most of the groceries are bought at the organic farmers’ market on Thursday, and most of the cooking is done in the outdoor wood-fired bake-ovens. It’s delicious food, and conforms largely to the 100-mile “locavore” boundary. There’s a suggested donation ($6 for the main dish), all of which goes back into the park, and to pay for the groceries. But if you can’t spare the cash, donate at some other time – nobody goes away hungry! (Of course, if you feel like donating more than the suggested amount, that’s fine too.) Note: there is always kid food too -- organic hot dogs and mini-pizzas and the park's chocolate-chip oatmeal cookies.
