GILFORD — For over 50 years, the community has looked forward to this delicious "Harvest Supper" every fall. However, due to the pandemic, for the past two years the church has offered it as a takeout meal only. This year, on Saturday, Oct. 29, they are returning to a sit-down meal in the church hall.
The dinner features traditional bean-hole beans along with corned beef, cabbage, boiled potatoes, carrots, rolls, and homemade apple or pumpkin pie. Bean-hole beans are cooked overnight in the ground in large pots in holes lined with red hot stones. The church is proud to carry on this well-loved, longtime tradition.
The dinner will be served family style but with spacing between guests to allow for a less crowded meal. For reservations or information, call the church office at 603-524-3289. Leave a message with your phone number if the office is closed. Dinner settings are 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Reservations are encouraged.
The First United Methodist Church (Hope Ministries) is located at 18 Wesley Way (Rt. 11A near the Rte. 3 by-pass).
