Local Night Out

Local Night Out 2009: July 14th -16th

Local Night Out is our annual celebration of local foods and the chefs who turn them into delicious meals. Each of our participating restaurants features special menu options or events.

By enjoying a great meal at a Local Night Out restaurant you get a terrific local meal, you show your support for businesses that buy local foods, and you contribute to building a more sustainable food system. Each restaurant donates a portion of the proceeds from Local Night Out back to REAP's Buy Fresh Buy Local program- helping restaurants and farmers connect.
