The committee of the CHUS Foundation has launched of the second edition of Sherbybox, gourmet edition this year. This gift boxes, produced in collaboration with Sherbrooke merchants, will be available for Father’s Day and the proceeds from the sale will once again be donated to the foundation.
The Sherbybox will be sold online for $65 and will allow the population to discover the artisans and creators of the region. To fill this year’s box, the committee enlisted the help of several businesses, including Pizzicato and Westley restaurants, the Siboire microbrewery, the Silo bio-bulk grocery store, the Agropol urban farm, as well as Brûlerie Faro.
The goal of the Sherbybox campaign is to support health in the Eastern Townships through the CHUS Foundation while encouraging the local economy. “The members of our committee and everyone involved in this project have accomplished a great feat with the first version of the Sherbybox. It’s encouraging to see their motivation to continue the project. We are very fortunate to benefit from the support of such dynamic people. We hope that the Sherbybox- Édition gourmande will be as successful as the first box, which raised $20,500 for our foundation,” commented Martin Clermont, Executive Director of the CHUS Foundation.
All orders can be placed online on the new website Sherbybox.ca.
The boxes will be distributed on Saturday, June 20, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., at Siboire Dépôt. A can of beer from Siboire will be given as a gift.
A delivery option is also available.
