Union of Youth

Proud supporters of the Key, the owners and staff at Fermentations are donating their time, space, and expertise for this fund-raising event, all proceeds which will benefit the Northfield Union of Youth.  All of the staff at the restaurant are working for free that night so that all of the money collected (minus food expenses) will be able to go to the organization.  They have even secured a number of donations for food and beverages so as to reduce those costs!

It’s a great way to be able to enjoy some delicious food while helping out a good cause.

What: Fermentations Dinner – five course tasting with wines
Where: Fermentations Wine Bar & Bistro, 236 Railway Street N, Dundas, MN
When: Sunday, April 17th, 5:00pm

Please call 507-645-8345 to reserve a seat. Space is limited, so be sure to RSVP soon.

*The cost is $100 per person. Ages 21+. All proceeds benefit the Northfield Union of Youth.
