Veggies to Table

Dîner en Blanc ‘Maine style’ Auction

On August 10th over 200 of us dressed in our summer whites for Veggies to Table’s second annual Auction fundraiser — an evening of French food and wine, oysters, Alain’s legendary macarons, and silent & live auctions full of fabulous prizes and getaways! Each ticket & auction item supported Veggies to Table to help us continue our work of bringing top quality organic vegetables and flowers to local people experiencing hunger and needing joy. We raised a whopping $247,000 thanks to you all!

Our roster of Live & Silent Auction Prizes was amazing:

Trips to destinations all over the world, including a trips to Montmartre, the Marais, the Italian Seaside, Provence, and Mexico at Playa Viva
Maine stays at the Topside Inn in Boothbay, Seguin Tree Dwellings and Moss house in Georgetown and Otyokwa in Bremen and more!
Wine tastings, yacht adventures, a mushroom walk and foraging, a sunset yacht sail, and other unique experiences
A private dinner on the farm with founders Erica and Alain
Gift cards to establishments like Bred in the Bone and Mistral in Boston and cookware from brands like le Creuset
Tickets to the Boston Ballet, the Boston Children's Chorus, and Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan and Sheryl Crow in Maine
A relaxing sauna, hand crafted silver ring by local jeweler Pamela Bosco, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens package, artisanal chocolates, a financial consultation, and a hand made broom made from a sapling from the Veggies to Table farm—the list goes on.

Thank you to those who joined us! This event will help us continue our vital work, and was an evening to remember.

We raised over $247,000 to help feed the many hungry people in our community. With hunger on the rise and so many of our food pantry partners losing funding this year, we hope to increase our giving.

A huge thank you to our many event partners, sponsors, and prize food and beverage donors!
