Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual The Farm to Table Dinner is having its third annual event in support of the Kidney Foundation of Canada-Atlantic branch on Sept. 18. The event will take place at The Farm at South Cove in Lunenburg, N.S. Proceeds from the Farm to Table Dinner go towards research for the Kidney Foundation but also support residents in rural areas of the province who need to travel to receive care. 'This money helps a lot of folks that have an income of under $15,000 a year,' Steve Freeman told CTV Atlantic's Brianne Foley. 'Which is really tough.' Freeman was born with kidney disease and has three children also suffering from the disease. 'So this cause really hits home,' Freeman said. Atilia Lantz is the chef for the dinner, which will feature a pig roast and buffet with locally sourced ingredients from DeLong Farms, Fancy Pants Café, Indian Garden Farms, Fresh Cuts Market and LaHave Bakery. The event is sold out, but Freeman says, 'we're still looking for next year.' 'We want to keep this going and keep it growing,' he continued. Donations can also be sent to the Kidney Foundation of Canada. The dinner starts 6 p.m. with a reception and live entertainment including media personality Jonathan Crouse.

Man arrested for murder of woman after crashing into McDonald's restaurant
A murder probe has been launched after a woman was found dead in a home in Northamptonshire. She was discovered inside a home on Donnington Road, Burton Latimer, after a car crash at a McDonald's restaurant some minutes away led them to the property. Police officers were alerted to the fast-food restaurant on Folley Way at about 3.30pm on Friday after a smash. A 35-year-old man had crashed his blue Skoda Superb car into the restaurant wall. When he was questioned, police officers learned about the woman at the property, which is located less than five minutes from the McDonald's. She died as a result of pressure on her neck, a preliminary forensic post-mortem has revealed, the police said. Detectives have now arrested the 35-year-old man on suspicion of murder, and he remains in police custody. Neither the victim nor the male suspect are previously known to the police. Senior investigating officer Detective Inspector Torie Harrison, of EMSOU, said: 'While we're not yet able to formally name the victim, our family liaison officers are supporting her family and keeping them up to date on our progress is our priority. 'This is a fast-moving investigation dedicated to finding the answers they need, and I'd like to offer reassurance that we continue to treat this as an isolated incident with no risk to the wider public. More Trending 'I would like to thank all those witnesses who have already spoken to us, and ask anyone who may have information but has yet to speak to us to come forward.' Heavy police presence remains in place on the residential street as the investigation continues and neighbourhood officers provide support and assurance to residents. Superintendent Steve Freeman, the local area commander for North Northamptonshire, said previously: 'I know that people are very upset by this tragic death, and I want to reassure the community that we are not seeking anyone else in connection with this investigation and we do not believe there is a wider risk to the community. 'The investigation is fast-moving and our teams are dedicated to securing answers to what has happened.'
