In a world filled with diverse flavors and culinary experiences, the Taste of Mower County event is set to tantalize the taste buds of food enthusiasts while also making a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD).

Hosted by LIFE Mower County, this annual event is back and on the hunt for dedicated tasting partners and generous auction item donors to ensure its success.

The Taste of Mower County is a yearly culinary extravaganza that brings together local chefs, food enthusiasts, and community members to celebrate the rich tapestry of flavors our region has to offer. It’s not just about savoring delicious cuisine but also about giving back to the community. This year, LIFE Mower County aims to make the event bigger and better than ever, and we need your help.
