The third Monday in January is called “Blue Monday.” It’s known as the saddest day of the year. While it’s not scientific, Blue Monday is in January, when the air is chilly, the sun is noticeably absent, and the holiday hangover persist. To boost the mood and provide additional cheer on this dreary day, Acadia University will be serving-up some cake for dessert at Soups and Sides on January 20th.

 

Soups and Sides is a weekly drop-in that welcomes community members to the Wolfville Farmers’ Market for soup and a side of community-building activities on Monday evenings from 5 - 6:30pm. The program was developed by Acadia students and is supported by the Town, Acadia University and the Wolfville Farmers’ Market to help people build relationships while enjoying equitable access to delicious food that has been prepared by community chef, Ayzhia Beaton. Each week, leftover soups are donated to the ASU Food Cupboard in support of Acadia students.

 

Soups and Sides is a great way to get out for a hearty meal, to meet some new friends and to celebrate what a great, caring community we share. Drop by the Wolfville Farmers’ Market from 5 – 6:30pm on Monday, January 20 to join the fun. It’s warm, fun, free, and welcoming. Plus – cake!
