We loved celebrating and supporting donation farm McKinney Roots with our 2021 Suppers with a Cause, but it was time to give another local nonprofit the spotlight. Our Winter Supper with a Cause on February 17th benefited the McKinney nonprofit preschool Holy Family School.

Harvest Seasonal Kitchen hosted another pair of sold-out Suppers with a Cause in support of McKinney Roots! The seasonal spring menu was curated by Chef Andrea with the best offerings from our local farms, paired with wines and seasonal cocktails to make for a perfect evening.

Our last Supper with a Cause was almost exactly a year ago. That night, we packed fifty guests into the Great Room and Cellar at Harvest Seasonal Kitchen in celebration of Empty Bowls McKinney.

Our first Supper with a Cause of the year is a wrap, and we have truly started the year off with a bang! After selling out in record time, fifty-three guests joined us at Harvest to celebrate Empty Bowls McKinney.

Webb Elementary School is a Title I school and home to nearly 400 students in grades K-5 on McKinney’s east side. Nearly three quarters of the students enrolled are on free or reduced lunch programs.

It was a beautiful rare spring day in 2019, rare because it wasn’t raining! A hundred guests gathered at the long table in the meadow for a special Supper with a Cause to support the Connemara Conservancy Foundation.

Hugs Café is a very special place. Just off the square in Downtown McKinney, Hugs is a restaurant staffed almost entirely by adults with special needs. It was a dream of founder Ruth Thompson.

Seventy degrees and sunny, the perfect North Texas fall day. We sold out our first ever outdoor Gala in the Garden at Water Boy Farms weeks earlier and a dozen people were scattered on the farm, deep into event preparation for the night, with a little black cloud overhead; the forecast called for 90% severe storms at 8pm, exactly the time of our live auction.
