Founded by Abundance NC’s Tami Schwerin and Lyle Estill after a family tragedy, the day-long festival aims to break the silence around the end of life through public celebration and conversation. The outside event, which takes place at The Plant in Pittsboro, will be mysterious, COVID-friendly and focus on grieving old ways of life and honoring the lives lost this year. This is a smaller, limited ticket event offering an interactive altar, a keynote speaker, live music and outdoor group activities. Food will be provided by Copeland Springs Farm & Kitchen and spirits from Fair Game Beverage Company. abundancenc.org
Select an at-home food and wine experience for contactless pickup at Johnson Lexus of Durham. Each of the four food and wine themes include four entrees and a dessert course prepared by local chefs and designed to be shared by two people with four halfbottles of wine hand-picked by Ryan Vet, sommelier and co-owner of The Oak House in Durham, plus a swag bag and a chef-tells-all video. A portion of Sip+Savor funds will benefit local restaurants and The Carolina Theatre in Durham to fund its Arts Discovery Educational Series. sipandsavornc.com
