Dance for the sake of fresh food: Kensington co-op benefit this Saturday

Filed Under: Food Events | We're Here to Help

The Kensington Community Food Co-Op, opening later this year, will be a grocery cooperative focusing all of its might on providing access to the freshest and most organic foods possible. The ultimate goal is to tighten up the Kensington community through the availability of local produce and other healthy goods, while promoting awareness for the overall well-being of our bodies and the environment. KCFC has declared 2011 the Year of the Co-Op, and wants to ring it in with a killer dance party to raise funds for the cause. The Saturday, Jan. 29, the fete will go down, featuring several local DJs, at the SINErgy Project Space (2310 N. American St.). You can purchase your tickets ($5) at the door, where inside you can take part in raffles featuring loads of spectacular local businesses while dancing your ass off. Refreshments will be provided. Flyer after the jump.
