Conservancy Auction & Picnic features cooking with Mario Batali

The Leelanau Conservancy will hold its annual “Friends” picnic and auction this Thursday (Aug 2) at Woolsey Airport near Northport. Proceeds from the auction benefit Conservancy protection efforts in Leelanau County.

In addition to Leelanau wines and food, there will be silent & live auction with almost 150 items including items for home & garden, art, food and services. The Enterprise also has a feature on one of the most sought-after items: a wine tasting, cooking lesson and dinner with noted chef and Conservancy supporter Mario Batali.

You can bid online and get more details about auction items and the event at the Leelanau Conservancy web site.
