"You say it's your birthday...it's my birthday, too, yeah!"- (The Beatles) Happy Birthday today to both Woodward McKee, founder of AVL Ride and Flori Chastain Pate, co-founder of Food Connection. Flori and Woody have worked together since the very first "food connection" happened five years ago with Packs Tavern and BeLoved Asheville.
Since then, Woody and his awesome team of drivers have rescued and delivered thousands and thousands of fresh delicious meals from places like The Omni Grove Park Inn, Celine and Company Catering, Crest Weddings, Funkatorium, Buxton Hall Barbecue and more.
If you're interested in hearing more about how it all began and come to Chefs in Action sponsored by Wicked W**d Brewing on April 16th and meet Woody, Flori, the chefs involved. We will be celebrating 5 years and 250,000 meals rescued to feed our neighbors in need. Learn more at https://food-connection.org/chefs-in-action
