Upcoming Events

Vintner Ball
Dish: Cuisine for Change

Vintner Ball
February 25 • Westin Edina Galleria

The Vintner Ball will again host the seventh annual First Growths for Second Harvest, a world-class, charitable wine tasting with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting the Twin Cities community and a deserving cause.

The Vintner Ball empowers the local chapter of Feeding America, Second Harvest Heartland, which in turn distributes much-needed food and grocery products to the region’s most vulnerable citizens — many of them seniors and children.

Held at the Westin Edina Galleria, this extraordinary event is not one to be missed. You’ll sip top-ranked wines from around the world, savor gourmet hors d'oeuvres and, if you choose, participate in a silent auction and wine seminars.

Ticket are available now. For more information or to purchase your tickets, click here.

Save the Date for Dish: Cuisine for Change
April 19 • Saint Paul RiverCentre • 6-10 PM

Dish: Cuisine for Change is Second Harvest Heartland’s annual gala and plays a crucial role in our work toward a brighter tomorrow.

At the ninth annual Dish, you’ll salivate at the dozens of gourmet dishes prepared by the best chefs in and around the Twin Cities, participate in exciting live and silent auctions and enjoy a plethora of fine wine and other beverages. But the night doesn’t end until your sides hurt from laughing at the uproarious comedy performed by stand-up comedian Sebastian Maniscalco. You may recognize Sebastian from appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno or his Comedy Central special, Sebastian Live!

Join us in cultivating hope for our neighbors in need by attending Dish. To reserve your tickets and tables, visit the Dish: Cuisine for Change website.
