Farm to Table

Dinner tickets on sale Aug. 13

The third annual Farm to Table Dinner will be held Thursday, Aug. 30, in downtown Waupaca.

It will take place under a tent on North Main Street and begin at 6 p.m. with registration and a social time.

The dinner will be served at 7 p.m.

About 100 tickets will be available.

Tickets are $40 per person and will go on sale Monday, Aug. 13, at the Waupaca Area Chamber of Commerce, with cash or check only.

Checks are payable to Living the Waupaca Way, the event’s sponsor.

The event will promote and celebrate local farmers, encourage the purchase of fresh and organic produce from local farmers and promote better community health.

Locally grown food of area farmers will be prepared by Waupaca restaurants.

The dinner will include appetizers, a salad, an entrée and dessert.

This year, KitchensBrew will prepare the appetizers and salad.

Magdalene’s will prepare the entrée, which will be vegetable lasagna.

The Green Fountain Inn will prepare the dessert.

The Aug. 30 Farm to Table Dinner will also include silent auction items and a door prize.

The proceeds of the Aug. 30 dinner will benefit the efforts of Living the Waupaca Way.

That includes supporting the Farm to Table Dinner, Farm to School, Waupaca Farm Market and working with organizers of local events to help them provide healthier menu options.

Living the Waupaca Way is the result of a 2016 merger between two groups.

Those groups are the Waupaca County Nutrition and Activity Coalition (NuAct) and Waupaca Community Health Action Team’s (CHAT) healthy living work group.

Waupaca’s CHAT is made up of group of people from throughout the community who work together to understand local health issues.

NuAct formed in 2003 after childhood health, nutrition and inactivity surfaced as health concerns in the county.

Due to their common goals for the community, members of the two groups began meeting in 2016 and decided to join efforts under a new name: Living the Waupaca Way.
