‘Taste of Larchmont’ to return; HopeNet event is Sept. 19
After a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19, the Taste of Larchmont is planning to return to the Boulevard Mon., Sept. 19, from 6 to 9 p.m. The delicious community event — with 15 participating eateries — benefits HopeNet, a locally started nonprofit organization that benefits people in our community facing food insecurity
Steve Tator, an erstwhile board member of HopeNet and a main organizer of the 2022 event, says that sponsors still are being confirmed and the theme has yet to be chosen. But Tator hopes to get invitations out by the beginning of this month, and Larchmontians can hope to start seeing posters around town soon.
Tickets are $50, and the organizer says there are usually around 500 sold. Ticket-holding participants are entitled to sample the varied offerings provided by numerous Larchmont eateries. This fundraiser usually raises close to $50,000 which, except for minor expenses, all goes directly to Hope-Net, enabling the nonprofit to stock its 12 local food pantries and provide emergency food to people in Los Angeles County.
