Calling all foodies — Chefs For Farmers Dallas is returning for year 14. Since its founding a decade ago, the event has become a full-on foodie festival that connects the community.

The event aims to uplift local artisans, chefs, and farmers cooking up delicious cuisine in Dallas and Houston. Through its program, Chefs For Farmers has donated over $50,000 to its charity partners in Dallas and Houston.

Chefs For Farmers Dallas’ charity partners include The Seed Project Foundation, which focus on sustainable agriculture practices and provides seed money to causes that further its mission, and Giving Tree Acres, which provides locally grown food to underserved communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Giving Tree Acres’ ultimate goal is to increase the amount of healthy, nourishing food available at food pantries, community farmstands, and schools.

The three-day wine and food festival will take place in Dallas the weekend of Friday, Nov. 1 through Sunday, Nov. 3 and culminate in The Main Event that Sunday at Old City Park.
