…Put on your whites and come to dinner

Come for the food, fun, friendship and music  on Sunday, August 14 for the 5th Annual Cittaslow Dinner in White.  This year, we’re celebrating our passion for the slow in true Cittaslow style with a long table set up in the fields of Kilrenny Farm.

Our community reflects the principles and ideals of and for the past 5 years, we’ve celebrated these ideals through our Dinner in White.  Join us again this year.

But remember—there are a few “rules” before you are seated in the field.  This is a Zero Waste event—you bring your own china, cutlery and glasses. In the spirit of our tradition, no plastics on the table. Wear white clothes and bring a chair, too.

The Cittaslow BBQ-ers will be cooking salmon (from Cowichan Bay Seafood) and chicken sausages over charcoal. You bring food, too. It’s all about sharing. Bring your favourite — salads, vegetables, fruits, or desserts — to add to the communal table. Local wines and beer will be sold on site. Please do not bring your own wines. We are restricted by licensing.

Live music from Genevieve Charbonneu and her instrumental string band, The Twisted Vines.
