Great Food for a Great Cause: Taste of the Nation L.A.

Taste of the Nation Los Angeles brings together dozens of top local chefs to raise money for a good cause. If you’re in town this Sunday, head over to Media Park in Culver City. You can participate in  Taste of the Nation events in other parts of the country, too, from Denver to California’s Napa Valley. It’s all part of a nationwide fundraiser to end childhood hunger.

California Olive Ranch is a sponsor of the event and all proceeds from tickets sales go toward area food banks and hunger programs.

If you go, you’ll be sampling food cooked with California Olive Ranch oil at the booth sponsored by renowned Los Angeles chef Suzanne Goin and three of her L.A. eateries: Tavern, Lucques and the wine bar and restaurant AOC.

At the booth, you can try an olive oil cake made using our extra virgin olive oil and a yellow tomato gazpacho soup finished with a drizzle of our Arbequina EVOO.

Each spring and summer culinary pioneers, celebrity chefs and mixologists, Food Network stars, and thousands more donate their time and talent at nearly 40 events across the United States and Canada. Their goal: raise critical funds needed to help end childhood hunger. The campaign is spearheaded by the national anti-hunger group, Share Our Strength.

Taste of the Nation was launched in 1988.

The campaign has raised more than $73 million for anti-hunger organizations that run or advocate for programs that connect at-risk families with the food they need to thrive.
