The Amagansett Food Institute presents Dine Out For AFI, a fund-raiser for which participating restaurants all over the East End will donate a portion of sales to support its programs for farmers and food producers. Each restaurant has agreed to make a tax-deductible donation of 20 percent of its proceeds from dinner service on October 10.
Participating restaurants include La Fondita, Almond, Fresh Hamptons and The Meeting House.
AFI supports farmers and food producers on the East End by providing services to make their businesses more sustainable through apprentice education, the development of new markets and advocacy around farm policy. Current projects include a collaboration with Long Island Cares and the development of a food business incubator, including a commercial kitchen, on the South Fork.
