Greensboro, NC – 501 Yanceyville Street. Celebrate North Carolina’s bounty from the sea and land at the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market’s (GFM) second annual Coast to Curb To-Go Seafood Celebration fundraiser on September 26, from 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm, featuring a NC shrimp low-country style seafood boil. This “Sea to Table” event will help raise vital funds for the Market’s food security programs.

The “to-go” meal for two people will be served with a generous portion of NC fresh steamed and seasoned peel-and-eat headless shrimp, farm-fresh potatoes, corn on the cob, smoked sausage, and locally made slaw. Fresh hushpuppies and cocktail sauce will be provided as well for everything you need to complete a delicious seafood feast picnic at home, all in one box!

The Coast to Curb To-Go dinner event is by advance ticket/pre-order, with pick-up times scheduled every 30 minutes to ensure the freshest meal possible. Tickets are $50, for a meal that serves two people, and can be purchased on TicketMe Triad at https://ticketmegreensboro.com/events/coast2curb and at the Market Information Hub, Saturdays 7 am – 11am. Add an insulated tote for a small additional charge to help keep your meal warm on the ride home!

GFM manages five different nutritional assistance programs that increase fresh food access, strengthen the local food system, and provide fresh local nutritious foods to those in need in the Triad. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Market has had a serious financial impact due to the cancellation of monthly fundraiser breakfasts at the Market, events, and rentals.
