Thanks to All Our Guests & Chefs For Another Great Year!
The Food Invasion 2011 was bigger, better, and more filling than ever before! A huge thanks to all of the regional chefs who donated their time and talents for this fundraiser.
Thanks also to everyone who bought tickets and joined the crowds for Friday and Saturday’s events at Hampstead. Due to your generous support and enthusiasm, the Food Invasion raised thousands of dollars for the non-profit Institute Farms’ Childrens’ Education Programs. For more details on the programs, visit the Hampstead Institute website here.
Don’t worry - we’ll post photos of Food Invasion 2011 as soon as they’re in, and we’ll be back to do it all again next year!
Thanks Y’all!
