Sunday, March 15, 11 a.m – 12:30 p.m., Senior Center 

— from Lena Kassa for Orcas Senior Center —

Join us for a memorable Spring Brunch, Sunday, March 15 prepared by the legendary Chef Christina Orchid. Tickets for this vital benefit are available here and at the Orcas Senior Center. Two seatings, 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., are available.

From 1981 to 2008, Chef Orchid pioneered the eat-local movement on Orcas Island with her four-star restaurant, Christina’s. Now, she and her husband, Bruce, own and operate Red Rabbit Farm and specialize in farm-to-table dinners, weddings, and catering.

The proceeds from Spring Brunch will benefit the vital Meals on Wheels and More program. Three organizations — Orcas Senior Center, Whatcom Council on Aging, and Senior Services of San Juan County — are woven together to assure no senior on Orcas Island goes without a meal. The Meals on Wheels and More program provides congregate meals and home delivered meals on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday weekly.

Support this critical program and enjoy a delicious feast on Sunday, March 15. Seating times of 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. are available for purchase at Orcas Senior Center and online at www.orcasseniors.org for $20 in advance and $25 at the door.
