Do a Dinner that Grows
Food Matters Manitoba is launching our first ever "host your own event campaign". Do a Dinner that Grows is an incredible opportunity for individuals and community members to generate awareness and support FMM in improving the health and lives of Manitobans.
You are invited to host your own “dinner that grows” to bring together friends or family to share food and ideas and raise money for important food security projects across our province!
We have created a comprehensive Do a Dinner that Grows Booklet that contains all of the tools you will need to plan a successful and scrumptious dinner event.
Resources
- Dinner that Grows booklet: a complete guide to planning and preparing your event
- Dinner that Grows invitation: a ready-to-send invite for you to give to your guests
- Local Food Stores: a list of some of the stores you can visit to purchase local ingredients
- Recipes from local families, farmers and experts for you to try out at your event:
