Taste of the Upstate challenges chef's to use local ingredients for 2025 fundraiser
GREENVILLE, S.C. (WSPA) – A Greenville nonprofit that rescues food and gives it to those in need wants you to come to enjoy a meal with them.
Loaves And Fishes is hosting the Taste of the Upstate, where competing local chefs will create secret dishes, and there will be live music and more.
You'll have the opportunity to vote for your favorite dish with the People's Choice Award, and four other awards will be given throughout the event.
This year's theme is Living la Vida Local, and 14 chefs will feature fresh ingredients from local farms.
One of the awards is for best use of a locally sourced ingredient. 7NEWS was live at Furman as they hosted the Furman Farm used by the Bon Appétit Management Company and Chef Rob Jansen.
Also featured was Chef Claudia Amezquita of Modelo Private Dining
The event is Sunday, April 13, at 11 a.m. at Bon Secours Wellness Arena
