Grow It Green’s Annual Spring Fundraiser on May 1, 5:30 pm, Glenbrook Brewery, Morristown

Did you know that Morristown is home to an urban farm that has donated up to 30,000 pounds of annual fresh produce to those in need, educated thousands of local students and new farmers, and offers fresh produce throughout the year with a Winter Market and seasonal farm stand?

Grow It Green Morristown, now in its 14th year, continues to promote health and strengthen our diverse community through urban agriculture, extensive education offerings, and equitable food access.  Each year, the organization holds one major fundraiser to support its programs. This year's Spring into Action fundraiser will be on Monday, May 1 at 5:30 pm at Glenbrook Brewery in Morristown.

Tickets are $85. Guests will enjoy a casual evening with light fare, including tastes from the Urban Farm and a custom ice cream flavor donated by Beenie's; seasoned petite maize popcorn from Madison Park Foods, an exclusive Glenbrook beer; and an eco-friendly wine tasting, courtesy of Cambridge Wines. Also included - a swag bag, music from the team at DJ Chelli, and a collection of  tricky tray baskets.

The event will also include a virtual Silent Auction with fantastic getaways, golf outings, Mansion in May tickets, and more. You can even bid to name one of the famous Urban Farm chickens! Sponsorships and ads are also available to help support our programs - email [email protected].

"Growing and distributing sustainable, fresh food to thousands of local residents is a super power, one made possible by events like our Spring into Action fundraiser. With the state of our world today, there's never been a more important time to collectively join together in this mission," said Lisa Alexander, Executive Director.
