The Middlebury Natural Foods Co-op will be hosting the 28th Empty Bowl Dinner to benefit two of our local Food Shelves, HOPE VT and CVOEO! Join us to eat delicious homemade soups, take home some gorgeous local pottery, enjoy live music by Fred Barnes, and revel in the great company of your fellow community members -- all for a great cause!

For 25 years, the Co-op has had the pleasure of collaborating with Middlebury Studio School (formerly, Frog Hollow) to help us put on this event. Kathy Clarke has been particularly instrumental in coordinating dozens of local potters to create up to 80 bowls for us, each year. In addition, we have enjoyed the generosity of the Middlebury United Methodist Church, which has provided the venue for this event free of charge. In fact, virtually every aspect of our event is possible because of the generosity of local businesses, organizations, and individuals, from the local farms that provide soup ingredients to the local musicians that provide entertainment.

Held at the Middlebury United Methodist Church (corner of North Pleasant and Seminary Streets), tickets are $30 and are now on sale at the Co-op or by calling 388-7276.
