Save the date–our 22nd Annual PestoFesto will be held on Saturday, May 3rd! This yearly end of season celebration will have our traditional farm-fresh pesto dinner, sweet treats from Rollin Oats, live music by the Urban Gypsies, Cigar City Beer, Uncle Matt’s Juice and wine from Vintage Wine Cellars! PestoFesto is a great time to come out with your friends and family to the Farm for an entertaining evening to celebrate your community.
PestoFesto is also an incredibly important fundraiser for the Farm. Ticket prices, individual donations, and sponsorships help us continue our education programs, community outreach, and basic farm functions. We are very proud to announce our first sponsor of PestoFesto this year–Global Organic Specialty Source. Global Organics is a Sarasota based company that provides organic fruits, vegetables, milk, eggs and much across the Southeast. Global Organics has supported Sweetwater many times before and continues to demonstrate a commitment to local, sustainable, and organic agriculture.
We are still seeking additional sponsorships of PestoFesto this year. As a member of the Sweetwater community, we are asking you to help us make this fundraiser and celebration a success. If you or a friend owns a local business please consider partnering with us for our annual celebration. We have business sponsorships that range from $250-$2,500. Or we also have “Friends are Family” sponsorship tables for individuals or groups to come out and support the Farm in their own unique way. Please contact our Program Coordinator, Kaitlin, at outreach@sweetwater-organic.org with any questions about PestoFesto, sponsorships, or other ways you can help.
Thank you for helping grow community from the ground up!
