Fry on.
Before COVID-19 put a serious crimp in Minnesota's economy, one in 11 Minnesota families couldn’t afford enough to eat. After a few months of living in a pandemic, that number is a staggering one in eight. We haven't dealt with this kind of hunger since the Great Depression.
We’re dedicating this year’s Deep Fry Festival to helping make things just a little bit better in our community, and we hope you’ll join us. We’ve set a goal of raising $5,000 for Second Harvest Heartland. Second Harvest has been helping hungry neighbors find their next meal for decades, and is one of the largest food banks in the country.
Please join us in making a donation, and easing a little bit of the hunger and pain that has crept into our community this year.
What's in it for you?
Glad you asked. While we can't reasonably host 100 guests for a fry party in the middle of a pandemic, there's no reason we can't have at least one family over for some fried indulgence! The top 10 contributors to the hunger drive will be entered in a drawing to be our guest at a private backyard deep fried feast prepared and served by the Taschler family. It does NOT get any better than that.
