Stefanie Carper, Gracie Cavnar, Virginia McMullen, Lauren DeSpain, Will McMullen, Bob Cavnar, Matt Henneman, Kimberly Cutchall, Lynn Goode, and Harrison Williams enjoyed the sold-out Delicious Alchemy banquet hosted by the Recipe for Success Foundation at Hope Farms. The Recipe for Success Foundation began in 2005 as an educational program to combat childhood obesity through educational programs that promote healthy eating. Chaired by Virginia and Will McMullen and honoring founders Gracie and Bob Cavnar, Delicious Alchemy featured 10 chefs who each prepared a course including produce grown on-site at Hope Farms and a wine pairing curated by 55Seventy. Gracie Cavnar, along with several of the founding chefs, introduced the Foundation’s new initiative, 20 for ’26 Campaign, to expand the Seed-to-Plate Nutrition Education curriculum to 20 additional Title I schools across Houston.
