New Pioneers invites our members, friends, donors, and community to attend our annual Empty Bowl Supper on Friday, February 21 from 6-8 p.m. at Cornerstone Acres in Springfield, Kentucky! This is our sole fundraising event of the year, and we'll celebrate in style with locally handcrafted bowls and a diverse spread of home prepared soups, breads, and desserts.
Register for the 2025 Empty Bowl Supper today!
This year's Empty Bowl Supper will celebrate New Pioneers' 20th anniversary and legacy of promoting sustainability throughout Central Kentucky. We'll bring together some recurring features of this event (including bowls, soups, and entertainment) with a sprinkling of new celebrations (including our second annual "Pioneer Awards" ceremony and a Silent Auction). You won't want to miss it!
Donations are encouraged at the time of reservation or upon entry, with a recommendation of $30 per attendee. Recommended dress is casual to elevated casual.
