2016 Refugee Restaurant Week

Join us for the Treasure Valley's inaugural Refugee Restaurant Week!

Refugees who were chefs abroad will team up with local restaurants to create dishes that represent their home countries. Visit either Juniper or Grit American Cuisine during Refugee Restaurant Week and order the featured dish to try the refugee chef-inspired menu.

Taste the world without leaving the Treasure Valley, and help support refugee chefs and farmers while doing it!

During Refugee Restaurant Week, participating restaurants will order produce for the featured dishes from Global Gardens. Global Gardens is a refugee farmer program that strives to involve diverse families in healthy lifestyles and entrepreneurial training. They do so through the cultivation, harvest, cooking, eating, and sales of fresh, healthy produce. Global Gardens connects the food needs of diverse families with resources to grow and market food. 

Interesting in ordering from, supporting, or buying a CSA share from Global Gardens? Visit their website at www.globalgardensboise.org.
