February 9th RiRa is hosting Share Your Love, an annual event that benefits the Cooking Matters program of Share Our Strength. Cooking Matters is a program that educates at-risk adults, teens, and kids on how to cook for themselves in a healthy and nutritious way on a small budget. Local chefs love volunteering their signature dishes because they know the money raised will go to such a worthy cause. Tickets are $100 per person, but for all the gourmet food and fine wine it is not a bad price at all, and that isn't even considering the fact that you are supporting the health and well-being of deserving people from Exeter to Dover to Portsmouth.

Green Alliance Business Partner Beach Pea Baking Co. is one of the featured establishments. If the $100 per person tab isn't your quite speed, stop by their Kittery location and ask them what they are bringing to Share Your Love and get a free loaf of bread for every $20 you spend when you show your Green Card.
