Food As Medicine Tasting Party

To celebrate 10 years of providing healthy, prepared foods for Santa Cruz families, The Open Hearth organized a tasting party featuring fare by The Open Hearth and other local food purveyors who also embrace food as medicine: Kitchen Witch Bone Broth, Roots Kava Bar, Creative Cultures, Burn Hot Sauces and Tastes Like Love. With nutritious, tasty bites, a no-host bar offering signature cocktails for sale made with freshly prepared mixers from The Open Hearth, and acoustic music. A raffle will raise funds for Second Harvest's Passion for Produce—a peer education nutrition program operating at 34 sites across the county that engages 200 volunteers and supports 1,300 low-income families with healthy foods and education.
