What Comes with My Order?

To-Go Soup and Bread

With your order you can select any number of soups to purchase from a variety of local restaurants. You can order as many soups from as many restaurants as you would like, all in one order! Each order also comes with a serving of bread from local bakeries.

16 oz pint of soup – $25

Hand-painted Bowls

Each order of soup will come with a hand-painted bowl to serve as a reminder of those facing hunger in our community.

We know that one of the favorite things about this event is browsing the tables of hand-painted bowls to find one that speaks to you. With Empty Bowls To-Go, you can still have this opportunity to choose your bowl. There are a limited number of these bowls available and they will be distributed on a first-order, first-serve basis.

Menu

Below is a menu of soups available from each restaurant participating in Empty Bowls To-Go. Both bowls or pints of soup are available.
