Support-As-You-Can Community Meal

at Woodlawn Press Winery

October 20, 2023
6:30 - 8:00pm

Join the Kingstowne Communion, Woodlawn Press Winery, and Provision Church/Kitchen for a collaborative, support-as-you-can, 4-course dinner with optional wine-pairings and conversation and music for Hunger Awareness Month, supporting Provision Kitchen, a new culinary job skills training program for individuals experiencing generational poverty in the Greater Alexandria area. We believe that, at the table, when wine is poured, bread is broken, and important conversations shared, the boundaries that separate us break down, and we are able to find the humanity, goodness, and image of the divine in each other. Come join us at the table. The invitation is open. It's more than a meal; it's a movement. MENU: Course I | Amuse Âme Toasted sourdough round, grape coulis, nard-scented olive oil Course II | Salad Beets and apple salad with mixed greens and an apple cider vinaigrette. Course III | Main Maple-roasted pork loin, sweet potato hash, green beans, caramel apples Veg: Maple Roasted butternut squash Course IV | Dessert Sugar encrusted pastry with pumpkin cream and sugared pears, and honeyed whipped cream Notes: - Children are encouraged to participate in the meal, too. - Gluten, nut, and dairy-free options must be reserved in advance. COST: This is a support-as-you-can meal. Truly, you can give what you can. However, if you are person with means give what the meal is worth or more, consider giving enough to cover part or all of the meal of another. For reference, the cost of each meal is roughly $15 per person without wine, $30 with wine-pairing. You can support with cash, check, or through multiple virtual options the night of the meal (PayPal, Venmo), giving directing to Provision Church & Kitchen. Any donations received above and beyond the cost of the meal will go straight toward the work of Provision Kitchen, a new culinary job skills training program for individuals experiencing generational poverty in the Greater Alexandria area. RESERVATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED* They are encouraged, though, to help us adequately prepare, and are required* for anyone who has a special dietary need.
