Taste of SoNo Supports Connecticut Foodshare

More than 200 people gathered May 28 in Norwalk for a night of food and entertainment supporting Connecticut Foodshare’s mission to fight food insecurity.

The second annual Taste of SoNo brought together local restaurants, business leaders, community partners, volunteers, donors, and supporters to celebrate Fairfield County’s vibrant culinary community.

The event took place in The Magnificent Room at the SoNo Collection.

Guests sampled offerings from more than a dozen local restaurants, distilleries, breweries, and other exhibitors.

They also learned more about Connecticut Foodshare’s work through its network of community partners, mobile pantries, and other hunger-relief programs.

“The generosity of our restaurant partners, sponsors, volunteers, and guests helps us continue our mission.”
