Bringing things together...changes and updates to upcoming events
Sometimes things come together in great ways!
As many of you know, HWC has partnered with Horn Farm and Buy Fresh, Buy Local to hold an innovative farm to table dinner (Farm-To-City) on Beaver Street on October 6, 2013. Rather than put a strain on all of our hardworking volunteers, farmers and donors, we are combining our Market-to-Table fundraiser with the new Farm-To-City event to dedicate all of our resources to this fabulous fall feast. With these great partners, this event promises to be one that the City of York will be remembering for years to come.
For those of you who have already bought tickets to the original event, don't worry: your tickets are transferable (or refundable if you are unable to join us on October 6).
If you are interested in volunteering for event planning, silent auction planning, or working in the kitchen during the event, or if you have any questions, please contact us at: healthyworldcafe@gmail.com.

Take a break from your day and head down to Healthy World Cafe for lunch Wednesday, July 24.
We'll be open from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. serving up healthy, locally
sourced eats at First Moravian Church, 39 N. Duke St., York.
Check out our menu:

Of course, our offerings are always based on whatever is available from our farmer friends, so also stay tuned for updates!
At Healthy World Cafe, we always feature our "eat what you want, pay how you can" philosophy. The ability to pay should never be a barrier to accessing delicious, unprocessed, healthy food. Take out orders are available by e-mailing your selections (by 10 a.m. July 24) to healthyworldcafe(at)gmail(dot)com.
Interested in volunteering for food prep or serving? Sign up through VolunteerSpot for our July lunch or other upcoming events.
And don't forget our switch to volunteer shifts for Wednesday's lunches: In order to better respect our volunteers' time, we'll be splitting the Wednesday lunch into two volunteer shifts: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and noon to 3 p.m. Feel free, of course, to sign up for both shifts, if you wish.
If you can't volunteer for an exact shift, hey, we understand that, too! We love that you're still eager to help out when you can. We would just ask that, after signing up through VolunteerSpot, that you'd send a quick email to sarah.e.chain(at)gmail(dot)com and let us know when to expect you. That makes it easier for us to plan out volunteer duties.
Check out a calendar of other upcoming events as well, including our third annual Market to Table event coming up Aug. 10.

Healthy World Cafe volunteer updates
As spring begins to peek out here and there (who else is loving this sunshine?!), Healthy World Cafe has a couple of busy months coming up. With that in mind, we wanted to share some of our upcoming volunteer opportunities -- and announce a change to our monthly lunches:
Healthy World Cafe always wants to respect our volunteers' time -- we love that you've chosen to help out with our mission to provide a locally sourced, healthy meal for anyone, regardless of ability to pay! And, of course, we want you to return and volunteer again.
So, beginning with March, we'll be splitting the Wednesday lunch into two volunteer shifts: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and noon to 3 p.m.
After all, being on your feet for six hours is a long day. With shifts, we aim to give volunteers time for a break to enjoy the food we know you've worked so hard on, and at the same time get an influx of fresh energy to close out the day and help with clean up.
If you can't volunteer for an exact shift, hey, we understand that, too! We love that you're still eager to help out when you can. We would just ask that, after signing up through VolunteerSpot, that you'd send a quick email to sarah.e.chain(at)gmail(dot)com and let us know when to expect you. That makes it easier for us to plan out volunteer duties.
Coming up this week is a private, catered event at Central Market York. We'll have food prep hours Tuesday and Wednesday nights, and then meet up around 3 p.m. Thursday to set up and serve at the event. Here are the details:
-- 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 12 -- Food prep for a private catered event. Meet at First Moravian Church (FMC), 39 N. Duke St., York.
-- 6 to 10 p.m. Wednesday, March 13 -- Food prep for a private catered event. Meet at YorKitchen, Central Market York.
-- 3 to 10:30 p.m. Thursday, March 14 -- Food prep and serving for a private catered event in Central Market York. Meet at YorKitchen. This day will be split into two shifts: 3 to 7 p.m., and 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. If you can't work a specific shift (say, you can be there 5 to 9, but not as early as 3), please email sarah.e.chain(at)gmail(dot)com and let us know when to expect you!
Curious about our other upcoming events -- our March lunch, Go Green in the City, and more? Check out our page of upcoming dates, and sign up through VolunteerSpot.
Thanks again for all you do!
