Summit County Farm Bureau is excited to announce Summit’s Plow to Chow, an exquisite outdoor dining experience benefiting Ronald McDonald House of Akron.
This fundraiser will be held on Thursday, July 17, 2014 at Boughton’s Farm. Arriving guest will be welcomed to the farm and shown to the greeting area to begin a guided tour, complete with a wagon ride through the produce fields while enjoying a glass of wine and appetizers.
Guests will then be seated at formal dinner tables, placed in the field, for a six-course gourmet meal of almost all local ingredients with local wine pairings.
Our overall goal is two fold: first to raise awareness of agriculture to non-farming individuals by connecting our diners to the origins of their food, and secondly to raise funds for the Ronald McDonald House of Akron so that they can provide local individuals and families in need with assistance and services.
In order to ensure the success of this very important fundraiser, we are seeking tax deductible contributions to help defray the costs associated with the event, and in turn guarantee that all funds raised from ticket sales will go directly to the Ronald McDonald House of Akron.
Our goal with Summit’s Plow to Chow event is to present a check for $5,000.00 to the Ronald McDonald House of Akron’s executive director, Anne Collins, at the conclusion of the dinner.
