“The Wednesday Norwalk Community Health Center Farmers’ Market has included onsite meals made by Katie Gervasio. She uses farm produce, and offers samples along with recipes to make them at home.
A voucher program provides customers with bags of fresh-picked vegetables.
What’s makes the market special is its voucher program for the NCHC’s patients with low income. Vouchers have been funded primarily by sponsors, but they have to be rationed near the end of the season.
To supplement the funds, the Health Center hosts a comedy night at Westport’s Joseph J. Clinton VFW Post 399 on Friday, July 26 (7 p.m.).
There will be 3 comedians, plus raffles, a live auction, cash bar and pub grub. Click here for tickets.
If the event’s name — Funny Farm — is any indication, it will be a very hilarious night.”
