The high summer harvest is here in Knoxville, TN: overripe tomatoes are splitting on the vine, that cucumber you meant to pick last week has entered its “blunt object murder weapon” era, and coworkers keep leaving bags of mystery squash on your desk. Might as well just go with the flow, and feast.

This Sunday, Aug. 10, St. Cugino’s Day takes over The Mill & Mine with an Italian-inspired, all-vegetarian celebration of food and drink spotlighting East Tennessee’s ripest produce and Knoxville’s most playful chefs. The event doubles as a fundraiser for two beloved local nonprofits: CAC Beardsley Community Farm and Pilot Light.
