On Sunday, September 10, the Lewisburg Community Garden hosted the Fifth Annual Locavore “Garden to Kitchen” fundraiser, and the event was absolutely amazing! The weather was stellar, and guests were able to stroll about the Garden while enjoying live music, and sampling dishes and drinks created by local vendors. 78 guests attended, and $2,100 was raised towards the Garden’s operating budget.
