Farm Fresh Rhode Island blogThis is the time of year for giving, and there’s no better way to give than to come to Project Apron: Fighting Hunger With Fashion!
On Friday, November 30, from 7-9pm, you can join RISD Dining for a fashion show and auction. 50+ RISD students and faculty have designed unique aprons that will be displayed and auctioned off. The event will raise money to fill the shelves of The Rhode Island Community Food Bank.
Half of the proceeds will be used to purchase fresh fruits and veggies from Rhode Island farmers through Farm Fresh’s Holiday Fresh Food Drive. The participating farmers have agreed to match the donations with an equal amount of food from their harvest, to be donated throughout the coming year.
Get in the giving spirit and join us for an evening of fashion at RISD’s The Met, 30 Waterman St. in Providence on Friday, November 30.
