Journeymen Father’s Day brunch

Posted on by Lea McLellan

Journeymen Asheville will host a Father’s Day brunch on Sunday, June 15. Proceeds from the event support Journeymen, a nonprofit mentoring and rites-of-passage program for boys ages 12-17 in the Asheville area.

The huevos rancheros brunch will be served by chef Maria Rueda, and some “J-Men” will be servers at the event. Along with huevos rancheros, expect fresh fruit, avocado, refried beans, tortillas and a salsa ranchera sauce, plus a choice of Mexican hot chocolate or organic coffee and dessert. Attendees also will have the opportunity to hear a few of the young men’s stories of transformation through the program.

When: Father’s Day, Sunday, June 15. There are two seatings — one from 10:30 a.m.-noon and the second from 12:15-1:45 p.m.
