Wine and Food Pairing

Help support the homeless animals that Father John's cares for all while treating yourself to a night out. Make it a date night, or go with friends as we come together to enjoy expertly prepared food, with each course paired with a fine wine.

Hosted by the breathtaking Northshore House on Swartswood Lake, this event is sure to be exactly what we need this summer. Celebrate the beginning of summer while supporting homeless.
