It is a miserable day, so it’s the perfect night to go out for hot soup with your neighbors and to help raise money so South Berwick families won’t be cold this winter.
Tonight, Wednesday, October 28th, from 5-7 PM is the community soup supper at Spring Hill Restaurant, Pond Rd South Berwick. It is an old fashioned community fundraiser being held by townspeople working with Social Services to help local families deal with heating costs this winter. There’s no set donation or entry fee — there will be a bucket by the door where people can give whatever they can to help their neighbors stay warm.
Restaurants in South Berwick and York are pitching in and providing soups and breads for the event. Among them are: Nature’s Way Market, Pepperland, Forgarty’s, The Catered Event, Redbarn at the Outlook Farm, The Black Bean, The Brixham General Store, Spring Hill Restaurant, When Pigs Fly Bread. Local merchants; Abby Chic, Salmon Falls Gardens, The Early Bird, Vacuum Village, the Little Hat Company, and Kimmi’s Best Biscotti are providing prizes for raffles to be held during the event. Tickets are also available ahead of time from The Early Bird and The So Berwick Pharmacy. Jeff Lind and Carl Pehrsson will be playing acoustic jazz music.
