This year’s chili cook off to benefit the St. Louis Area Foodbank was a great success. Thanks to all the great restaurants who participated. And the winner, by a large margin, drum roll please…Sunny Street Cafe (formerly Rise and Dine).

The race for second place was very close, within a few votes.  Final tally,  2nd place winner goes to Big Chief Roadhouse.  Big Bear Grill, I.J’s (formerly Indigo Joe’s)  and Clancy’s all made very respectable showings.  Please remember to visit these local eateries and let them know you appreciate their generosity.  

Thanks to all our great customers, who donated a total of $301 to the St. Louis Area Foodbank.  Wines Of Wildwood is matching these donations dollar for dollar, plus a bit extra, for a total of $625.  Thanks to your generosity, we also collected approximately 270 food items!

Customer Steven Moore was very excited when his name was drawn as the winner of the $150 gift box for his food donations to the St. Louis Area Foodbank.

For us, January is a time to reflect on our blessings and plan how we want to live in the new year.  We want to start off in a positive direction, and hope you will join us all this month in support of the St. Louis Area Foodbank.  There are three different ways you can help:

Join us here on facebook, and tell your friends.  For each new “Like” we get on our facebook page, we will donate $1 directly to the foodbank, up to $200.

Every time you visit our store, drop off non perishable food items. For each item you donate, you get to register for a chance to win a fabulous wine basket full of exceptional wines and tasty treats ($150 value).

Come to our fifth annual Chili Cook Off, 12-4 p.m. Saturday, January 28th.  We have asked local restaurants to submit their best chili, and we will all get to vote for a winner.  We also will be serving four wines we have chosen to enhance your chili experience.  Your voluntary $3-$5 donation goes directly to the St. Louis Area Foodbank, and Wines Of Wildwood will match your total donation up to $300.
