The Taste of Wellesley 2020 has been cancelled due to COVID-19. The Taste of Wellesley 2021 will be held next year on Thursday May 13th, 2021.
Restaurants donating food and their time made the Taste of Wellesley a huge success for the past three years. Now they are struggling. The Rotary Club would like to pay back their generosity and raise funds to help them recover and feed front line workers in the war against COVID-19. If you would like to help, go to our gofundme page and make a tax deductible donation to the cause.
