A Feast for the Eyes–Gala in the Garden

Enjoy luscious decor, farm-to-table cuisine from Green’s on Tenth, wine, beer, and light-hearted entertainment at an intimate outdoor event. Dress for an elegant but fun event and come prepared to try your hand at horseshoes, giant Jenga, cornhole, and other picnic-inspired activities in a gorgeous outdoor setting in a lush agricultural area, and don’t forget to come ready to bid on amazing silent auction items.

The Food Initiative of Greater Stanislaus (formerly Interfaith Ministries) is taking bold, decisive actions to increase public health by providing healthy food in our county where our agricultural abundance is in sharp contrast to the 24% of children facing poverty and the risk of hunger every single day. Each year, we hold a “Feast for the Eyes” event, to help raise money to purchase food and create sustainable programs to affect tangible change for our region, and to raise awareness about this issue and the innovative solutions we undertake.

We hope you’ll join us this year! Though we will be enforcing low-capacity in an outdoor setting, we recognize that not everyone is ready to meet in person, so we are also offering a to-go event on June 18th with many of the same perks!

Two Ways to Participate

Saturday, November 21, 2020 at 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM

Online Trivia Night and Rebrand Reveal:

You will receive a Zoom link to participate when you complete registration.

This is an online party with a purpose. Kick back with your friends or family in a digital setting, grab a beverage or some popcorn, and settle in for some good, clean fun.
You’ll not only have a great time, have a chance to win prizes from local businesses and support an important cause, but you’ll also be the FIRST to learn Interfaith’s new name and see our new logo! That’s right, we are unveiling our rebrand at the end of the night.
Registration fees support our programs, providing food and clothing to our neighbors in need. Your $15 registration fee is good for one screen.
Teams can have up to 6 people. If your team members are in different households, or are using multiple screens, please pay one registration fee per screen. No more than 4 people per screen, please.
Put on your thinking caps, folks.
