Savor: A Strolling Supper, now in its 9th year, is an event that connects food, land, and people. This event features 6-7 stations that highlight chef partners/farmers/beverage artisans, a silent auction, and a VIP Youth hour, offering guests the opportunity to wander the natural landscape, connect with LEAF's powerful young leaders, and savor the season's bounty through curated small plates and beverage pairings. Savor 2023 will also highlight LEAF's 10th anniversary with a special video, toast, and interactive timeline!
The LEAF Project is an exciting, young nonprofit organization at the forefront of youth development, social justice, and food system work in South Central PA. Partnering with regional leaders in farming and public health, LEAF creates a rare and powerful space for youth leaders to experience their capacity and engage in building a resilient food system. On our 7-acre farm with one acre in production, LEAF operates a youth-run sustainable vegetable farm that distributes produce through farm shares, restaurants, public health partnerships, and markets. Through year-round seasonal internships, LEAF youth also engage in their own leadership development, and workforce readiness skills, and move on to positions of increased responsibility managing LEAF ventures in our community. LEAF's mission is to cultivate youth leaders from diverse backgrounds through meaningful work in the food system. You can learn more about LEAF at www.leafprojectpa.org.
