Three Tomatoes Trattoria Burlington, Lebanon, Williston, Rutland

For the month of May, we are hosting Slow Food USA as part of our Sustainable Communities initiative. Each month, we host a non-profit organization at our restaurants increasing awareness and raising funds for the group. The money raised this month, and raised at the May 7th dinner noted above, will support Vermont farmers’ goal of attending the 2008 ‘Terre Madre’ event in Italy. ‘Terre Madre’ is the largest international gathering of small scale farmers and food producers providing a forum for producers whose traditional methods and ways of life are threatened by an industrialized world food supply.

Please join us for dinner on Wednesday evening May 7th at our Burlington, Williston, Rutland and Lebanon locations. Three Tomatoes will donate $1 for each entrée ordered to assist a Vermont farmer attend this year’s Terre Madre event. For more information about the organization visit slowfoodusa.org.

The King Street Youth Center was born of meager resources amidst tremendous need in the heart of Burlington, VT. With a few dedicated parents, a group of volunteers from the University of Vermont, and a budget of $90, the program began in a van parked next to the former King Street Laundromat. Our mission was to provide community based support for children and their families through educational and recreational programs.

Our vision for the next century embraces the fundamental belief in the value of all children. Our existence is based on our belief that children deserve the best that we have to offer. We owe them our collective richness and will be blessed in return by on happy child's ability to return the favor to another generation. Visit kingstreetyouth.org to learn more.
