Five Homes. Five Chefs. Tallahassee.

Children’s Home Society of Florida is bringing Chefs’ Sampler back but with a TWIST! It’s our honor to introduce the second Chefs’ Taste of Home coming to Tallahassee on April 5, 2025, from 1-5 pm. We invite epicurean aficionados and experience seekers to join us for a Saturday afternoon indulging in the finest, local cuisine, artfully paired libations, and a walkabout around and within the area's finest homes.

Guests will set off on a guided tour of five, beautiful homes where at each stop enjoy an artfully curated signature dish from an esteemed Chef, wine pairings, and the company of community members who delight in the same explorations.

Funds raised through Chefs’ Taste of Home will benefit programs in Greater Tallahassee and help us continue to DO GOOD for our CHS children and families.

Join us for a spring-themed reading circle with our April Non-Profit Partner: Bring Me A Book Forgotten Coast (BMABFC)! This special gathering is designed for moms and little ones to enjoy a cozy afternoon of storytelling, community, and giving back.

BMABFC ignites the passion to read among young children and improves literacy and success in schools for the children of Gulf and Franklin County, Florida.

What to Expect:
A delightful selection of springtime stories read aloud.
Sips and snacks for both parents and kids to enjoy.
A chance to shop our featured candle, with proceeds supporting BMABFC’s mission to ignite a passion for reading in young children of Gulf and Franklin County, FL.

This is a wonderful way to celebrate the joy of reading while supporting a great cause. No RSVP needed—just come ready to enjoy a heartwarming afternoon!
