One long table.
One whole town.
The Longest Table Vienna is a community potluck supper held each spring on Mill Street, with one long, shared table stretching down our closed-off block. Neighbors and newcomers, families and seniors gather over food brought from their own kitchens, hosted by volunteer Table Captains, to share a meal that benefits Rustic Love and the local school food pantries they support. The event is free to attend; 100% of proceeds benefit Rustic Love after costs.
A potluck the whole town can join.

What neighbors say.
“It was the most Vienna thing I've ever been to. Neighbors I'd waved at for years suddenly felt like friends.”
“Our table brought enough food for an army. We left full, and the Rustic Love team did, too.”
“I came alone and left with a dinner club. That's the magic of one long table.”
Frequently asked.
Is the event free?
Yes. Registration is free. We do ask each attendee to consider a $10 (or more) donation to Rustic Love, and every dollar goes to food-insecure families in our area.
What should I bring?
Your Table Captain will coordinate the potluck for your table and let you know what to bring (a side, dessert, drinks, etc.). Water is provided.
What if it rains?
There is no rain date. Your Captain may move your table to a nearby home or restaurant and will let you know.
Can I bring my kids?
Absolutely. Families are the heart of this event. There are kids' games on the Town Green throughout the meal.
I need accessibility accommodations.
Please let us know on the registration form. We reserve table sections near the end of the row for wheelchair access and caregivers.
