Community meals in Cashiers feature pickin’ on the side

art gatheringtableThe Gathering Table is providing fresh, nutritious dinners from 5 to 7 p.m. every Thursday evening at the Cashiers Community Center to all members of the community regardless of one’s ability to pay. 

 

Started by a group of like-minded citizens a year ago, The Gathering Table has been operating for just more than a year and has served approximately 4,500 dinners since opening. In addition to sit-down dinners, take-out meals are available for shut-ins and families. 

Whenever possible, The Gathering Table serves fresh, locally grown organic food, much of it provided by the Blue Ridge Farmers Co-op. It serves the Cashiers, Glenville, Highlands and Sapphire areas and welcomes residents to come for dinner and enjoy the camaraderie and community spirit at every dinner.

Volunteers are always needed to help at the dinner, and donations are gratefully accepted.

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.

The Smoky Mountain News is a wholly private corporation. Reader contributions support the journalistic mission of SMN to remain independent. Your support of SMN does not constitute a charitable donation. If you have a question about contributing to SMN, please contact us.
